#Termux #staticweb #blog #webdev with #Pandoc, day 2.

Day 1 here: mastodon.ml/@jilotta/112797081

Changelog:
+ Added first article and article index
+ Changed the colorscheme so that clicked links look pale and blend into text while fresh links are accented.
+ Added a <meta name="theme-color"> tag into template so that the browser statusbars match the background in color.
+ Fixed error screen. It's no longer white and lifeless. Now the font and the colorscheme match the rest of the website.
+ Added joke
+ Added favicon
+ Fixed file hierarchy

Quark (by suckless), the server I'm using, doesn't support HTTPS by default, and for it to work I'd need to install a TLS proxy.

It would be impossible to actually host the website from Termux since port :80 (the HTTP port) is blocked by the Android system. Currently, the site is hosted on my local WiFi at port :6969.

Hey! Glad to see you here!

This is an archive of my thoughts for you to enjoy (or suffer, depending on the time of day).

I’m a fan of minimalism; a fanatic, even. That’s why there are no distracting navbars, sidebars or theme options. If you want to change the theme, use Stylus.

Before you read: if you question whether I’m serious or not, the answer would be “yeah, no”.

With that in mind,

Posticles (sometimes in Russian)
Testicles (striked out)
Brain (leads to 404)
Also, the website is hosted on an Android phone. Every page here was written in Termux, and is served from there as well. Read more.Articles index:

…that’s it!
Go back to the home page if you want :3The first article:

Hello, world!
Hello and welcome to this blog!

I am now at my grandparents’ house, and don’t have a computer with me. At the same time I wanted to start blogging, so I thought,

why not?

Why don’t I host my blog on Termux? It’s all static anyway, it’s not like there’ll be comments.

And so, the blog was born.

That’s right, the page you’re on, as well as the rest of the website, is hosted on an Android phone!

It isn’t that much of an acheivement, actually. Everything on this website is static. Every page is generated from Markdown using Pandoc, and served with Quark from suckless. I really like Suckless, and had been using their dwm for a year and a half before switching to KDE.

Quark needs root permissions to bind to a port, so I use the Root config by AdarshAdde a.k.a Mr Idealhat. It doesn’t actually require root permissions and instead uses proot. Without it, I wouldn’t have known proot even existed.

The whole website is written in Helix. It’s a great editor, and I use it on my computer as well.

Have fun and explore the rest of the website!

When I hear suckless my succubus side thinks of a NSFW meaning

Want to wane myself off of #Spotify. Set up a #navidrome server over the weekend, to unlock my personal digital music collection in a Spotify-like way. Trying out #DSub and #Subsonic apps on android, and #Sonixd on the desktop. Loving it. Of course, I won't have immediate access to the huge catalog of Spotify, but in return I do get a lot of music that is not on Spotify, and no right-wing ownership.

#OpenSource #TechFreedom #TakeBackTheWeb #SucklessTools #DeEnshitification

Screenshot of Sonixd playing an album. The user interface is very much like that of Spotify, with a menu to access albums, playlists and more on the left, album art and metadata on the top and album tracks below it, with a player along the bottom.

Holy cow!!! 🐮

Thanks to the #sucklesstools I finally found a screen locker that works on the VNC session!

Thank you suckless-tools to be so amazing... or to simply suck less... :blobaww:

Now I need only to remember the 2000 packages I installed before... :flan_bored:

Another #PEBCAK kicked out! 🦾

I'm looking #software recommendations.

I recently learned that #suckless is actually a pretty bad group and I'm getting tired of the limitations on some of the #sucklesstools I use.

- I want a browser that can be keyboard-driven and minimal. I'm looking at qutebrowser as a candidate.
- I want a similar WM experience. Maybe Xmonad? Not interested in Awesome or i3.
- I know dmenu can be replaced by rofi

I'm open to any alternatives you all suggest.
