“I started building websites in 2008. We are fortunate to have amazing open-source web development software available to us these days. If you dislike the large tech companies, or big businesses who have too much control, being able to build your own website is one of the most effective ways for you to make your voice heard.“
– Dr. Kerry Kriger
