WordPress and YAML
I, uh, created a very simple, and very proof-of-concept, WordPress plugin that lets site admins run YAML data through a template, and spits out the outcome. Continue reading WordPress and YAML →
IndieBlocks v0.3.4
If you were to install IndieBlocks on top of a fresh WordPress site, it’d give you short-form post types, microformats, and the ability to send and receive webmentions. Continue reading IndieBlocks v0.3.4 →

A brief overview of some of the things IndieBlocks does, and will, do, and why. Continue reading What IndieBlocks Does, and Why →
IndieWeb Blocks
I’m definitely not the first to dabble in Gutenberg blocks “for the IndieWeb,” but, bear with me. Continue reading IndieWeb Blocks →
Easy Markdown
A little while ago, I switched from WordPress to ClassicPress (and back). While on ClassicPress, though, I needed something other than Jetpack’s Markdown module to render my “Notes” to good ol’ HTML. Continue reading Easy Markdown →

Importing “Bookmarks”

Colorful Source Code Images
