C# on Linux exists for a long time, but many users are unaware of this. The languages that are used most today on Linux are still C, C++ and various scripting languages Python, Perl and Ruby. Miguel de Icaza, the founder of the Gnome Desktop, was the one who aimed to develop an open, crossplatform C# compiler and Common Language Runtime for Linux, Unix and macOS in 2001. The results suceeded in 2004 in the Mono Project¹, which is an open implementation of ECMA-334 Standard² which defines the C# language itself and the ECMA-335 Standard³ which defines a Common Language Infrastructure for different languages, such as C#.

To set up my personal Github pages, I decided to use a static site stack - sometimes called the JAMStack.

The idea is, instead of using a huge and slow CMS like WordPress or Drupal, to build a whole site of only static HTML and asset files. Neither the dynamic, server side rendering of the pages, nor a database is required.
