git.nergen.net is up and running. And so is the frontend. I want to make a user that runs all those extra servers. And systemd path units that automatically reloads them when configs changes (on push of the site).

Next prio is to make legit blend in with the page, shouldn’t be to difficult.

I think i will add like a braindump section to this, the todo, page. Like I get ideas, stumble upon neat stuff or a place to paste new codeshit i picked up, that is all related to the site. I don’t want the blog to be a blog about how i created a blog where i write articles about making a blog.

Git files - 4 - 3

accept a patch | mail from outside.

When it is setup it will have a button in topnav named files or nergenware?

CSS/layouts for legit

systemd path unit to autoreload on config change

about_section - 4 - 5

redesign the root home page to be an about page, which is actually a single page about section. On that page i would like to mix personal and technical stats, like both what my favorite music and text-editor is, as well as what distro the server is running on and what the software stack for the site has.

The template for this page should be made a lot more fun then for the blog, with js easter eggs and stuff.

I can make the logo - 3 - 5

I need a 88x31 button so, and a favicon or two, and an avatar.

When i published the site i realized that it would be nice to have different favicons for the published and the local version of the site, and possibly a third one indicating local version with/without drafts.

This should be easy to setup using emojis for the local versions.

And when i have a brand, make an image favicon for the published site.


For the button i have this idea of keeping it lose and switch it around, maybe, or maybe just do hat for the “home” button in the navbar, and have a static brand design for the version made so people can share.

guestbook - 2 - 3

Working on this has been a ride, i knew close to nothing about any of the stuff (Go, HTMX, NGINX/caddy) prior. But learned a lot making this stupid little guestbook.

It works now, needs some styles and shit.

I also should add a captcha, but low-key kind of want trollspamming to happen first.

Also I got tons of ideas on how it could be extended, i will dump some here:

CSS grids - 2 - 3

Redo most of the layouting with css grid. This is something that can just be done gradually, I have experimented with it on some pages and it isn’t as much work as i thought, i think.

helper scripts - 2 - 1

I did a push script it will to till i have the git shit setup.

Have still not made a todo-poster script .

hilite - 1 - 3

As of now, embedded dotfiles on the blog, is done with render hooks, and i haven’t been able to have syntax hilighting on them play nice, so i disabled it completely.

Even though, i am a downlighting kind of guy, it would still be cool to figure out how to get it working.

This is borderline “high” effort, because it is the messiest parts of hugo templating…
