Hello, World — and how this blog is built

·

Hello! First post on the new blog.

I figured I'd start meta — a quick note on how the blog itself is wired up, since there's no backend.

The site is plain static HTML. Each post is one folder under /blog/<slug>/. GitHub Pages serves the files directly (the .nojekyll at the root tells it to skip Jekyll).

For Google to actually find posts, three things matter:

  • JSON-LD BlogPosting schema in the <head>
  • A sitemap.xml, a robots.txt, and an RSS feed.xml
  • Boring HTML hygiene — real <article> tags, alt text, OG meta, canonical URLs

That's basically the whole setup. No comments, no analytics. Maybe later.
