My blog on Rails!

I have taken Geoffrey Grosenbach’s advice and written my own blog software. It’s a pretty basic application right now, with the following features:

  • Single model (article), no comments yet
  • Haml used for view code, I prefer this to erb as it is nicer to write, and results in properly indented html
  • Markdown Textile used for editing articles in plaintext
  • Deployed using Vlad

My next ask is to add an RSS feed, so that my many readers will be able to subscribe using an RSS reader :)
