From Jason: my custom digital garden in 11ty
11ty is a lightweight static site generator. I chopped up my HTML and used the 11ty starter template called eleventy-base-blog as the structural foundation for the site.
-
It's 2023. How are you developing simple static websites?
Sure! It's on github at https://github.com/nosecreek/dustin-lammiman - I started with https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-base-blog for the basic templating logic.

Can you "call" another HTML file within an HTML file?
I would do this with Eleventy which is a powerful static site generator with support for html partials (partial is what I call your toolbar here). You would use the template language nunjucks which Eleventy comes with support for, or you can choose plain html too if you don't want the Nunjucks capabilities for logic like if/else, for loops, javascript injection of dynamic values in your html at site generation time, etc. This repo shows most of the techniques you could need and use: https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-base-blog

Getting Started with 11ty
For the second site I made using 11ty, I used this repo which is a more advanced 11ty template that can be customized. After following the instructions in the README.md file and edited all the markdown I came up with this:

One of the greatest user interface disasters in history
Mastodon is a microblogging service, so not meant for large bodies of text. This is why the text entry box is small, the columns are somewhat narrow (especially in deck mode) etc.
Platforms like https://writefreely.org/ , which are designed to be for blogging and long-form writing, are the place to write this. Write Freely federates so one can follow accounts and interact with posts via Mastodon etc.

Hi. I created a copy on Lemmy just in case Reddit goes down the drain. If any of the current mods wants mod access there, just let me know. If you think this is a horrible idea, also let me know and I'll remove it.
It's all about federation, in these federated networks all these servers talk to eachother and exchange messages about stuff going on on the servers. So it's easy to set up a hidden service for the webui of one of them, but it's sometimes quite obscure to try and set up the federation for one of them. It depends on what settings they honor and what other types of encryption and authentication they require and stuff. But, if you put some effort in ahead of time, you can make it really simple: I don't know how to do it in rust(lemmy is written in rust), but here's a neat example of how to do it in Go: https://github.com/writefreely/writefreely/pull/710 which requires no complicated configuration.

Which platform for occasional blog posts?
An alternative to Plume is WriteFreely, which is a pretty clean & simple experience. Just don't expect to much regarding customization.
-
It’s 2023. Start using JavaScript Map and Set
I also wish write.as were more popular. It's like old Medium, but less popular but with a more reader-friendly business model and self-host-able (AGPL v3)
