Personal Site — ialan.eu

Source code for ialan.eu, a Zola-powered personal site and blog styled like a terminal/Vim buffer.

Primary forge: codeberg.org/ialan

---

Prerequisites

• Zola (static site generator)
• bash, date (for the build script)

---

Local Development

1. Clone and enter the repo

git clone https://codeberg.org/ialan/ialan.eu.git
cd ialan.eu

2. Serve locally with hot reload

./scripts/build.sh serve

Open http://127.0.0.1:1111.

Note: Do not run zola serve directly — it skips the build timestamp injection that powers the "updated" winbar metadata.

---

Build for Production

./scripts/build.sh build

The site is compiled into the public/ directory. The build script also writes the current UTC timestamp to data/build.toml, which the templates expose as the site’s last-updated date.

---

Deploy to statichost.eu

1. Ensure statichost.yml exists at the repo root: it already points to the public/ folder.
2. Push to your git remote (Codeberg, GitHub, etc.).
3. statichost.eu picks up the statichost.yml and serves the contents of public/.

No additional CI steps are required — the host reads public: public from statichost.yml.
