How?

How did I make this blog? It’s truely nothing special. In fact, that’s part of the philosophy.

The technical

I write the blog entries in Markdown. For this day, for example, you can view the markdown here.

The markdown is converted to HTML via pandoc. This happens in the script convertPosts.sh.

Then another markdown is created, that has links to all the HTML pages (in reverse order). This markdown is then also converted to HTML via pandoc. This happens in the script index.sh.

All the HTML is styled with a solarized dark theme I found on the internet.

All of the content is then pushed to a Codeberg repository. Since the content is in a branch called pages, Codeberg automatically creates a website for me.

That’s it!

The non-technical

Ok, that was quite easy. I have another answer in mind, but I think it also has another question. But I don’t know, what that question is.

I got inspired to write this by wonderful Lu. Go check them out!
