Show HN: Having fun making mini static site apps

joeheyming — Mon, 01 Jun 2026 05:02:28 +0000

I've been having a blast making multiple mini apps that run in the browser. I've been trying to see how far I can go without having a backend and relying on other services. I wrote these for fun and wanted to know what folks think.

Show HN: XLog Static site generator for knowledge bases with automatic backlinks

blazeeboy — Thu, 07 May 2026 13:13:11 +0000

Hey HN! I'm the author of XLog. I built it because I wanted a knowledge base tool that combined:

- Local markdown files (like Hugo/Jekyll) - Automatic backlinks (like Obsidian/Roam) - My text editor (Vim), not a proprietary app - Git version control built-in

Most static site generators (Hugo, Jekyll, 11ty) are built for blogs. They're great at that, but they don't have knowledge-base features like automatic backlinks.

XLog converts `Page Name` to bidirectional links automatically. When you write about "Machine Learning" and link to "Neural Networks", the Neural Networks page shows that Machine Learning links to it. No manual link management.

AS Notes helps you to publish your notes to a static site in the same way that you might use Jekyll, Hugo, Eleventy or Docusaurus, but from your existing markdown notes knowledge base and from within VS Code.
