bashblog

This is my workflow for my site, too, just replacing MS Word with Obsidian since it syncs over all my devices allowing me to write/edit my future content wherever I am at, then upload later. I tried things like bashblog for awhile, but it has some quirks like sometimes placing posts out of order when building the index page. That and I have zero use for the built in analytics options or things like Discus comments, so it seemed like I was really only using about 30% of what it was meant to do. Here's a link to that for anyone interested. It's quite tweakable. https://github.com/cfenollosa/bashblog

Bashblog[1] is pretty lean, and doesn't use any dependencies. [1] https://github.com/cfenollosa/bashblog

I'm testing for same job bashblog -> https://github.com/cfenollosa/bashblog

I really enjoyed this article – not only because of the content but the distraction-free layout makes it a pleasure to read. It’s rare that I come across a site using such minimal and effective graphic design. As a bonus, the site loads quickly and doesn’t rely on a stream of third-party JavaScript files or other web resources. For a first blog post, I’m impressed. If I ever get around to publishing my own blog, I know what to aim for. Keep up the good work. The web needs more of this! The footer indicates that the web page was generated using bashblog [1] – looks like it might be worth checking out. [1] https://github.com/cfenollosa/bashblog

I self-hosted ghost, as you mentioned. I'm happy with it. I'm tired of WP and it getting hacked a couple of times per year--even on my barebones blog--and I wanted markdown posts. My girlfriend does a lot of the editing and it's gone smoothly. Site is snappy & simple. I spent 5 or 6 hours coding the template for a new blog and it wasn't very difficult to get it working well in ghost. Bashblog mentioned in another comment looks cool. https://github.com/cfenollosa/bashblog

Nice idea, I love it! If you want a similar solution, but self-hosted, here's another commandline blogging system contained in a single bash script: https://github.com/cfenollosa/bashblog

That's mighty fancy. But this isn't really a "missing blogging platform". If you're a hacker, there are also a fair number of blogs written in Bash : https://github.com/search?q=bash+blog&ref=cmdform My favorite is bashblog https://github.com/carlesfe/bashblog If you're not going to allow comments on your blog, it makes sense to have something simple that you can hack. Best of all it's something you can run locally.

Author here. Feel free to drop any comments, this was a "weekend project" as I couldn't find anything as simple as that. By the way, I recently uploaded the code to github: https://github.com/carlesfe/bashblog and some people are using it to publish their blogs via dropbox and site44, cool!
