Updates to my blog

By

It's been nearly 10 years since I created this blog and for that entire time it's been using the Pelican static site generator. It's been pretty good, but lately I've wanted to improve and change some things, so I've taken the opportunity to rewrite it from mostly scratch.

b2 is a Rust program that takes an input folder of markdown files and spits out a complete HTML directory of the blog. The templates and theme are taken from my fork of pelican-sober. For the most part nothing has changed, I've just taken the opportunity to adjust the CSS and improve some of the HTML output.

b2 is pretty specific for my usecase, I'm not planning to turn it into a general purpose static site generator, though you're more than welcome to fork it for your own needs.
