It's an Actix Web/Tera/Datastar concoction, hosted on `fly.io`. It provides the backing for galleries for my music site: https://crusty-metallian.net

Now, if only I could actually write something for the blog part...

I guess I'm of the wrong mindset that when trying to teach a language, it helps to do all the things in said language, because then you've got lots of fodder to write about and explain other people's code, pointing at your own use case as examples.

As I said, I'm clearly in the weird minority on this one and should have kept my damn trap shut. We are all free to make our own choices.

I suppose too I was coloured by my hatred of Hugo. :)

At least use Zola instead of Hugo…

I know I’m in the my, but I believe in using the language fully if you’re going to provide a learning resource for said langauge.

I will eventually get something in my blog about this project.

It’s founded in Rust and incorporates a Deno runtime for extensions.

It’s headless now, via JSON-RPC. I’ve got the basics of a trait based system which will enable different frontends. At the moment, I’ve created an extension for `pi` which allows me to use that as the frontend.

It's inspired by Zola, but has better documentation and will hopefully be more approachable when all is said and done. I'm trying to incorporate WebAssembly, with Yew, to give "islands" for high performance stuff you might want where WebAssembly makes sense. For example, I wrote search from the ground up, and built a search widget using Yew.

You can also just write JavaScript if you want.

It's a total work in progress, but I'm enjoying what I've built so far.

About an hour ago I was dismissed as AI slop on the r/rust Reddit. Whatever.

This tool is my line of defense in case `trunk` goes dead, which it seems to be increasingly likely. It helps me build fullstack sites using Actix Web and Yew.

Using it now to see if I can re-invent my blog site for the umpteenth time. :)

It's built in Rust using Rama and Yew. Trying now to get websockets going so people can actually play. A bit over my head, but that's what I do :)

I'll do it anyway, as I need to learn to own where I'm at and have a backbone. :)

I'm learning the Zola static site generator and using to to build my blog at https://jeff-mitchell.dev. The focus is my mis-adventures learning the Rust language.

I've found it a challenge to get off my feet with Zola, but I'm slowly figuring things out. Little victory this evening, finally figured out how to get images linked in posts to render properly.
