What is this site?

An overview of what this site is and why it exists.

This site used to run on Decap CMS + Hugo + Hugo Tailwind theme + GitLab Pages. It has recently been transferred to Cloudflare Workers with a completely custom CMS and D1 SQLite database.

I tried many times to get AO3 up and running myself, had some success getting it running on Docker, and then gave up when even that was flaky. I wanted something simpler. I wanted a flat-file system that didn't rely on a database or server-side languages like PHP. I used Decap CMS because of this for a while, but ended up a bit annoyed by some things.

I'm still building out the functionality. There is some janky code, especially when I was moving features around. Don't look at the code, I will fix things as I find them and can, but if it ain't broke don't fix it is generally my motto. Especially for something that is just for me. I'm not selling or distributing this.
