I think my personal site is a very nice minimal site: https://cmp.is/

I strive to have as little js/css as possible. Currently only has Google Analytics and whatever Cloudflare wants to stick in there. I have to simplify the CSS to the bare basics eventually. I use Hugo to build the site and I get to post many different kinds of posts like links, notes, and real full posts.



Inline your CSS to make it leaner.

Probably drop that custom font too, they are all render blocking.

About the CF's js in the head: probably you have some apps enabled (smart errors?).

You can disable it.


Yea I tried to disable the CF stuff, but I'm not sure which setting I'm forgetting.

Yea, I'm thinking about dropping the font so it loads even faster. I do like it, but I can always just specify it as a font to use if it's there.

I'm gonna see how much I can inline to speed it up, but I'm not sure how manageable that'll be with Hugo. I guess I'll just try that in a branch for now.
