I only recently began reading Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore (2012) by Robin Sloan but I already know it’s a good one. How?
I can’t put it down. This hardly ever happens with works of fiction.

Organization. Consolidation. Archiving. Systems.
These are the words of the day, these days.
Oh, and— making use of a CMS that is 10 years old and unlikely to ever see another update.
Introducing hy(de)blog
DOWNLOAD! 👉 hyde.kvl.me
hy(de)blog is a fork of the 'hyblog' hybrid blogging system created by Colin Walker. This system takes a different approach to blogging than most database driven or static site generated platforms. Rather than having to build the site after each change, the hyblog system uses dynamic files which write/pull posts and comments to/from .md files.

hyblog evolved.
The hy(de)blog fork builds upon the core foundations of hyblog by adding several functional & stylistic improvements while addressing bugs & errors within the initial code. The improved stability that hy(de)blog brings to the hyblog system readies it for regular day-to-day long-term use and adaptability by end users. Further details on this fork are available at /colophon.
hy(de)blog was generated by Kevin Van Lierop (me!) during the first couple months of 2023.
