/slashes

Colophon

Updated Saturday, 21 December 2024

This site is powered by a lightweight custom flat-file CMS.

Written using the Laravel PHP framework, it leverages the Sheets package to render Markdown files.

I use iA Writer to author posts and update /slash pages, using the built-in Micropub integration to publish directly to the site. These updates are then periodically pushed back to the GitHub repository.

The whole thing is hosted on a small DigitalOcean Droplet running Ubuntu 24.10 and PHP 8.3. Deploys are manually triggered by SSH-ing onto the server and running a simple deply.sh script.

The site uses Tailwind v3 and the system monospace font. The only Javascript used is Shiki for syntax highlighting of code samples.
