Made with Pollen: Colophon #63

Open basus opened 4 years ago

basus commented 4 years ago

I've been working on a project atop Pollen that I'm calling Colophon. It's an experiment in building a static site generator, that I'm hoping will grow into a tool (or set of tools) that supports the writing process, as well as publication. At the moment there's:

  1. A bunch of Racket code, divided between modules that are useful for Pollen users generally, and some wrapper code that I'm gradually building up. It's available through raco as well.
  2. A website that shows off Colophon, and also guides development. Write now, it's basically a simple blog, but I'm hoping to add non-blog-like features (support for drafts, series, works-in-process etc) in the not-too-distant future.

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. I'll try to add updates to this issue as it progresses.

This is really cool, @basus! I like the philosophy behind it with its intent to support the creation as much as the publication, and the simplicity you're striving for. Am excited to watch this develop!

I'm starting to pick up work on this again. As of now Colophon supports syntax highlighting and basic themes and templates (by standing on Pollen's proverbial shoulders).
