Notes, projects and things I'm building.

It exists mostly so the site has one, and so that the deploy pipeline has something real to build.</p> <h2 id="why-a-static-site"><a class="header-anchor" href="#why-a-static-site" aria-label="Link to this section">&gt;</a> Why a static site</h2> <p>I want a place to put writing and small project notes that does not need maintenance. A static site generator gives me HTML files at build time; a web server hands them out. There is no application, no database, no login, and therefore almost no attack surface and almost nothing to patch.</p> <h2 id="the-stack"><a class="header-anchor" href="#the-stack" aria-label="Link to this section">&gt;</a> The stack</h2> <ul> <li><a rel="external" href="https://www.getzola.org/">Zola</a> for the generator.</li> <li>The <a rel="external" href="https://github.com/johnnybravo-xyz/zola-quiet">zola-quiet</a> theme, vendored in <code>themes/zola-quiet</code>.</li> <li>A tiny nginx container serving the built <code>public/</code> directory.</li> <li>Cloudflare in front for TLS, caching, and WAF.</li> </ul> <h2 id="how-a-post-gets-published"><a class="header-anchor" href="#how-a-post-gets-published" aria-label="Link to this section">&gt;</a> How a post gets published</h2> <p>Write a Markdown file in <code>content/posts/</code>, commit, push. A GitHub Action builds the site and syncs the result to the box. Caddy routes <code>mortenvindberg.com</code> to the container. Done.</p>
