I have been working on something similar this morning. I want to create a simple blog to document my thoughts without having to deal much about technical stuff and maintenance and spend a few hours diving the rabbit hole of jekyll blogs.

While their documentation(https://jekyllrb.com/docs/) is one of the best resources to learn, I have found my job much more straightforward using one of the pre-built themes that is available on the internet. With deployment to github pages almost instantaneous, I can see myself updating the blog much more often.

The blog which I am currently working on: https://jagadeeshposni.github.io The theme I have used: minimal mistakes

What's simpler about this than just uploading .html files? This seems actually very complicated for what it does.

Just uploading HTML files won't teach you how to use Cloudflare workers and their KV store.

A "simple text blog" shouldn't need to use anything of the sort.
