RSS Feed

[clay53]

Your blog looks really cool, and I want to follow it. So, I, and I imagine you, would want to add an RSS feed. I'm sorry I don't add it myself. I'm busy with school atm.

Note: I could be blind and not see it because you do mention RSS in your blog (https://baczek.me/open-source-daily-guide/).

Hey, thanks for your kind words!

You're not blind, the site does not have an RSS feed as of now. My style of writing - randomly adding/editing pages and keeping a dev log doesn't fit well with RSS's paradigm of having some sort of structured post-centered workflow. I tried generating RSS (I use Zola for site generation, it has a built-in feed generator), but the results are not very readable.

Anyway, you got me to think about RSS, I think I'll look for a tool which can generate RSS feeds from git history :)

Maybe just an rss feed for posts to the devlog? I'm not sure. I'm personally not worried about the body text being readable really - I'm fine with just a link to a new/updated page. Thank you for looking into it!

@clay53 I hacked together a small script for generating an Atom feed from the git history of changes in my devlog file. An update is published every time i edit the devlog, so it's more like a notification stream with a link to the devlog URL, but IMO it is enough for now. Let me knows if you can think of any usability improvements
