website

bmo.dev source code

Currently, this is a simple static HTML website.

Dependencies

• bash
• Pandoc
• Perl’s Template::Toolkit
• Perl’s Mojo
• John Otander’s retro markdown theme (included as a git submodule)

Source files

The source files are markdown files which allows me to write content than can be translated into virtually any document. I use Pandoc to translate markdown to HTML, and John Otander’s markdown theme to style it.

On top of that, each markdown file is templated using Perl’s Template::Toolkit, and rendered recursively using ttree. This makes it extremely flexible and effortless to write new content quickly.

Building

I created a simple bash script, make.bash to automate the development and build processes.

$ ./make.bash help
Automated targets:
        help:           Show this help message

        dist:           Clean, make css, make markdown, make html
        serve:          Make dist, then serve the dist directory contents using Mojo
