Blog

====

This is the source code for [my personal site][ruudva]. It is a static site

generated by a homemade generator written in Haskell.

The generator includes a tiny templating engine, an html and css minifier, and

an aggressive font subsetter. One of my objectives was to cut all the crap

(which almost by definition includes javascript) without compromising on

design. An average page of my site weighs less than jQuery alone (which

describes itself as “lightweight footprint”). That includes webfonts.

This is version three of my blog. Previously I used [Hakyll][hakyll] (available

in the `archived-hakyll` branch), and before that I used [Jekyll][jekyll].

Compiling

---------

All dependencies are available in a [Nix][nix] ≥ 2.14 development environment

that you can enter with

    $ nix develop --command $SHELL

This will bring a `python3` on the path with the right requirements for font

subsetting, as well as the blog generator itself, and tools for compressing

images.

The generator gets built as part of the development environment, but you can

also compile it manually with GHC if you like. Then build the site (requires

fonts to be present):

    $ ghc -o blog src/*.hs # Optional

    $ blog
