i like inventing bicycles so for my little personal project collection page I’m writing a custom Static Site Generator in Rust. it doesn’t really do anything cool yet but I like the idea of having a fully customizable thing.
inspired by fasterthanlime blog and countless others minimalistic-from-scratch personal pages / blogs.
features
- project descriptions are written in markdown with some custom hacky extensions
- code blocks with highlighting by highlight.js:
def greet(name: str): print(f"hello, {name}") - latex-style math with MathJax: $\displaystyle \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{x^2} dx$
- per-project media files:
- tag system with something like a simple faceted search
