mattjs.me

Personal blog built with Zinc, templ, TemplUI, Goldmark, and Tailwind CSS.

Run

make install
make run

Open http://localhost:3000.

For live development, run make dev and open http://localhost:7331. Changes to Go, Templ, CSS, and Markdown files rebuild the app and reload the browser.

Writing

Posts live in content/blog. Set the list-page summary with subtitle in the front matter:

title: Post title
subtitle: A short description of the post.
date: 2026-08-19
tags: [go]

make dev regenerates Templ and Tailwind output automatically. Outside the watcher, use make generate for .templ changes and make css for changes to assets/css.

Configuration

Site metadata is defined once in internal/siteinfo/config.go. Deployments can override it with SITE_NAME, SITE_TAGLINE, SITE_URL, and SITE_LANGUAGE.

Cloudflare Workers

The production site is a static export served by Workers Static Assets.

npm run deploy:dry-run
npm run deploy

wrangler.jsonc points Workers at dist. The deploy scripts rebuild the CSS and static HTML before uploading, and the exporter writes the Worker _headers rules into the output directory.
