Sweet new website!
I thought it was about time I actually made something useful. So here it is. A website.. with posts! In all seriousness, it was quite interesting. Although this post is just here to have something here.
Static site generators have grown rather complicated. Far more complicated than I would ever need. Additionally, I would rather not have to relearn the damn thing every time I want to change the site. So I went looking for simple. Preferably written in a lisp-like language or a lisp dialect, because I thought that would be fun. After a little bit of searching, the choice was between Haunt, written in Guile Scheme, and Bagatto, written in Janet.
I ended up with Haunt, simply because it was in nixpkgs which in turn made my life easier. You can check out the source of the website here. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Documentation was so-so, but by taking advantage of the awesome people who made stuff with Haunt over at Awesome Haunt, I managed to get up and running. It really is quite a powerful ssg.
That said, Janet might be worth checking out at some point.
