Blog
This is the source code for my personal site. It is a static site generated by a homemade generator written in Haskell.
The generator includes a tiny templating engine, an html and css minifier, and an aggressive font subsetter. One of my objectives was to cut all the crap (which almost by definition includes javascript) without compromising on design. An average page of my site weighs less than jQuery alone (which describes itself as “lightweight footprint”). That includes webfonts.
This is version three of my blog. Previously I used Hakyll (available
in the archived-hakyll branch), and before that I used Jekyll.

Compiling
All dependencies are available in a Nix profile that you can enter with
$ nix run --command $SHELL
This will bring a python3 on the path with the right requirements for font
subsetting, as well as Stack, and tools for compressing images.
Build the generator, then build the site (requires fonts to be present):
$ stack setup
$ stack build
$ stack exec blog
