General update

Astro / Tailwindcss / DaisyUi

Thanks to GDWR and fisher60 from AbandonTech, Yaksha webiste is now recreated with Astro. 🎉

Yaksha Programming Language Mascot
  • Astro allow you to build pages with .md and .mdx files.
  • You can also create components similar to React.
  • Tailwindcss is the new kid on the block when it comes to a CSS framework. However, unlike bootstrap it is basically a CSS framework.
  • DaisyUI - UI components built on top of Tailwindcss.

😮‍💨 No more CSS (pain) for me. Thank you very much. 🤣
