Week 35: 🐐 Goat Counter

Never thought this would happen — I was at the gym 🏋️‍♂️ when I got a notification: my Cloudflare quota was maxed out… all because of the little PV counter I built earlier. 😅

Goat Counter

After a bit of thinking 🤔, I figured it’s smarter to use a SaaS instead of reinventing the wheel. That’s when I stumbled upon Goat Counter 🐐✨.

It offers:

• 📊 A clean, simple dashboard
• 📡 A beacon API (no cookies needed!)
• 🔌 APIs to display PVs directly on my site

And the best part? It’s unlimited & free, with the option to self-host if you want. 🚀

React Bits

This week, I also rewrote some blog card logic to make the build faster ⚡. Added some sleek UI components from React Bits and finally finished the archive page. 🎉

Microsoft Clipchamp

I used to rely on CapCut for video editing. Lately, they started charging for many features 💸, so I switched to Microsoft Clipchamp. After a few rebuilds, I must say — it’s solid and totally enough for my needs. 🎬✨
