  1. #Jekyll with the #AsciiDoctor plugin looks pretty decent as an option (the plugin is also well-integrated), but Jekyll seems to be a bit restrictive on the site structure, and anybody who has perused my website

    probably knows by now that aside from the crappy CSS it also fully leverages the power of #ikiwiki's inline directive for nested awesomeness*.

    So hm should I rewrite Ikiwiki in #Ruby?

  2. I'm going to have to write my own #AsciiDoctor-based static site generator, right?

    I still haven't found anything that fits my use case, coming from #ikiwiki, which I want to leave because it's slow, written in Perl (not my favorite language) and doesn't integrate well with AsciiDoctor.

    #Antora manages to both be overengineered for my use case *and* miss essential features like feed generation. Also node.js, no thanks

  3. From my recent conversation with @trwnh (<mastodon.social/@trwnh/1133777>) I'm getting the impression that if I managed to create a well-integrated #AsciiDoctor-centered blogging system to replace my #Ikiwiki setup I wouldn't be the only one using it. And I don't even mind #Ruby as a programming language. Now if I only had a few extra 24 hours in the day, I could even get to it.

  4. I'm trying to study how #Hugo works to see if it's a good candidate for switching over from #IkiWiki, and the first thing I learn from the quick start guide is that #PowerShell and #WindowsPowerShell are different applications. Way to go, #Microsoft.

  5. Picking a toot: a short write-up on adding “Share to #Mastodon” links to the Wok via #tootpick

    (This is also my first test to see if it works, and it seems to work so far.)

  6. I'm working to add #Tootpick
    github.com/Juerd/tootpick
    to my website, which is statically built. I need some way to add a Tootpick link to each permalink, and I want to do it client-side via JavaScript (Tootpick needs JS anyway). So I need to add this JS to all the webpages, and I'm having #choiceParalysis on how to do it. Modify the base page template, or add a builder setup option?

    (TBF, this is partially the fault of my builder, #ikiwiki, which isn't really friendly on this side of things).
