If this is "next gen", I think I'll stick to using emmet-mode in Emacs to write raw HTML, templating with m4 macros, validating with tidy, and doing the build and deployment with a makefile.
- rayrag 6y agoI bet that blind people can't wait for next 'next-gen' static blogging: html::after { content: "Welcome to my blog" }
- demifiend 6y agoWhenever people do stuff like this, alternative text protocols like Gemini make more sense.
- Ryan_Goosling 6y agoI thought the crowd on HN was more technically versed than this post. This self-titled "next-gen" blogging solution disregards SEO and accessibility. Am I wrong?
- demifiend 6y agoI'm tempted to argue the value of SEO when to me it has come to mean catering to Google and trying to game its algorithms, but no. You're not wrong.
- richsu-ca 6y agoMade me realize my own site needs work. Thank you for sharing this
- demifiend 6y agoI hope it helps. A woman I worked with a decade ago impressed upon me the importance of accessibility and sometimes I try to pay it forward.
