Hello World!
This is the first post of Weiro, a simple blogging CMS. At this stage, I've only managed to
build the site reader and site builder, making this little more than a simple little static
site generator. But I eventually want to add a proper UI for editing posts.
Much like Kev Quirk's Pure Blogging CMS, of which this is inspired by, the contents of this
site will be stored as plain text files on the file system (or in any `fs.FS` implementation).
But unlike Kev Quirk's CMS, the generated file will not be rendered on demand. Instead, it
will be built as a static site, a bit like Micro.blog, and served from something else.
I start with Netlify but there's no reason it needs to be that. It could be anything that
can serve static files.
In addition to this, I also want to make sure titleless posts are a first-class citizen.
That's how I like writing my posts, and many blogging platforms don't have great support for
it.
