my webjam contribution

My first blog post is all about the blog itself.

As a part of the ctrl-c.club's webjam 2024 I decided to make a blog, via a bash script (who hasn't done such a script, haha). The script is looks awful, it works but there are many things to sort out and functions to add. My problem is that I have a goldfish memory so if I don't use programs like sed everyday I have to start all over again learning despite the fact that I write my own documentation (in swedish).


The script, named blaker, publishes posts, update the posting index and updates an atom feed. I've never written atom feeds before but it was very fun exploring that.

The list of things to do for the next version includes lifting out all the hardcoded configuration to a separate file, make a configuration script and a sort of simple database so its possible to edit blog posts via blaker.


The actual blog is really simple. I do not use any javascripts and the css file is very small.

Hopefully I have something to post once a week but who knows?


The idea of a webjam is fantastic, I've been thinking about creating a blog a long time and this was an excellent oppurtunity to get around to it. Thanks, ~gome!
