Blog

A static blog you publish to from Telegram.

Posts open with a full-bleed backdrop image that dissolves into the page, with the title sitting on the seam. Below that: the body, your links, and a contact address.

How it works

Telegram  →  Cloudflare Worker  →  GitHub commit  →  Pages rebuild

The Worker walks you through a post one step at a time, then commits a markdown file and your images straight to this repo. GitHub Pages does the rest. Nothing else is running anywhere.

Layout

Path What it is
_config.yml Site title, links, contact. The only file you edit by hand.
_posts/ Published posts. The bot writes here.
assets/img/ Backdrops and inline images. The bot writes here.
_layouts/post.html The hero, body, and prev/next
_layouts/default.html Head, masthead, and the links + contact footer
index.html The post list
assets/css/style.css Everything visual
bot/ The Cloudflare Worker. Excluded from the site build.

Changing the look

Colours and typefaces are variables at the top of assets/css/style.css:

--void:   #0E1113;   /* page */
--ink:    #EAE7E1;   /* text */
--haze:   #8E959B;   /* secondary text */
--signal: #B9A3FF;   /* links, accents */

Swapping --signal changes the accent everywhere. If you change typefaces, update the Google Fonts <link> in _layouts/default.html to match.

Post front matter

The bot writes this for you, but if you want to add a post by hand, drop a file in _posts/ named YYYY-MM-DD-some-slug.md:

---
layout: post
title: "Your title"
date: 2026-08-17 14:30:00
backdrop: /assets/img/2026-08-17-some-slug-backdrop.jpg
excerpt: "One or two sentences for the post list."
---

backdrop is optional — leave it out and the hero falls back to a gradient.

Running the site locally

Optional, and it needs Ruby.

gem install bundler jekyll
jekyll serve

Then open http://localhost:4000.
