a static blog generator which tries to do as little as possible:
-
do only the most essential stuff on server side (like providing links from index page to all posts), and move all non-essential stuff (like tags, sorting, filtering) to client side (Javascript)
-
do only the most essential stuff when generating index.html (patch it, instead of regenerating anew)
-
try to keep code as small as possible (under 100 lines of bash script)
It tries to fit between jr (which does not look very search-engine friendly), and bashblog (which re-reads all posts on single post modification).
Server-side:
- sed -i
- envsubst
Client-side:
- array.map, array.filter, array.forEach (FF1.5+, IE 9+)
- (document|element).querySelector[All] (FF 3.5+, IE 9+, Opera 10+, Safari 3.2+)
- window.onhashchange (Chrome 5.0+, FF 3.6, IE 8+, Opera 10.6+, Safari 5.0+)
