Ask HN: Share Your Personal Site
I have a blog[0], I write stuff. I don't have a job yet but I blog about my personal life and on technical problems, feelings, and stuff.
I also have a website with other things here and there [5].
The blog itself is literally a git repository, browsable here[1]. Whenever I push, it runs a git hook that executes build commands. The blog is composed of markdown files.
All the blog can be rebuilt by following the instructions and is meant to be as platform-agnostic as possible, meaning you could host it under any webserver under any path, links are relative, etc.
The blog system I use is blogit [2]; originally created by Pedantic software but has been heavily modified by yours truly[4]. Under the hood it's literally a makefile, unix `sed,grep,etc` to make tagging and other static stuff. It uses the markdown parser discount[3] to parse markdown into html. It is fully static and you can deploy it and just put a simple python http server on it. I use lighttpd, because I have some services set up.

3 YEARS On My Side Project!
I've learned so much while making this project into my personal website (dustinbrett.com). It's made me a much better web developer as I have tried to emulate a desktop environment with pixel perfect accuracy using CSS, HTML & JavaScript.

Unpopular Opinion: Desktop GUI is the most efficient and fulfilling way of Human-Computer Interaction
As someone who built a website around this idea, I agree! The desktop metaphor is powerful. If anyone wants to check it out it's at https://dustinbrett.com

Show HN: ExaequOS, a new OS running in a web browser
Very cool! It's always refreshing to see the "OS in the browser" projects that try and actually make something functional. I've been working on one myself for nearly 3 years now, called daedalOS (https://github.com/DustinBrett/daedalOS).
The WASM kernel idea is very cool and I hope one day to be able to add something similar to my project. I think you are onto something and I am excited to see your progress as you implement the GUI.

Os.js – open-source JavaScript web desktop platform with a window manager
If you want some Browserception, my desktop environment (https://dustinbrett.com/) can indeed do this. But after a few levels in Chromium you need to add a random query string (/?a=1) to the URL otherwise it stops working.
