sknebel

https://www.svenknebel.de since 2016-04-12 runs a still nameless custom python/flask app, reading HTML-formatted posts with YAML-headers from flat files.

Working as of 2017-05-20

• posts with HTML content and associated static files (primarily images)
• posts are in categories
• sending and receiving webmentions for posts and homepage
• micropub for creating and editing posts
  • reply/bookmark/like relations created via micropub
• other things (e.g. bridgy publish, rsvps) require me to manually put the necessary markup in the HTML content
  • I generally POSSE manually (and generally don't do it very often) and edit in the syndication links for backfeed

short-term itches

• Write a posting interface or micropub client. Hoped to avoid this, but posting to my site right now just isn't working using the stuff I've tried
  • support editing
  • content on *all* post types, both HTML and not

• non-HTML content format (plumbing exists, have to decide on a format and wire it in)
• file-uploads
• establish post types (bookmarks, quotes, ...)
• working on own IndieAuth endpoint
• better design for text-heavy posts -> right now to squished
• RSS/Atom feed
• implement EFF DNT recommendations and document me doing so
  • (test linked sites for basic adherence and display that?)

mid-term itches

• improved webmention handling (display comments, properly handle edits, better verification code)
• plumbing: caching, better background processing
• photo metadata markup/handling
• private webmention alternatives, non-interactive IndieAuth, easier login using IndieActions or similar
• workflow to add syndication links
• work on Kaja
• POSSE to Wiki for events

long-term Itches/random ideas

• investigate autocomplete, custom fields, ... for micropub

• CSS posts that show up as styling options

• I would like for a Client-side JS static site generator to exist, to get around the "have to install strange stuff" problem for non-programmers. Not sure if I personally would use it though...
  • There is increasing related acitivity under the label [Jamstack https://jamstack.org/] good intro at beginning, but right now still quite API-dependent

• a very basic little password/TOTP auth endpoint as a single php file or so might be a neat thing to build I haven't contributed yet, but selfauth is a thing now

• round-trip testing tool for Webmentions&display, maybe also MP?
  • send WM from randomly created post to dedicated test-post, parse comment display (or other channel for people without display) for content.
  • have external verifyability somehow
  • update only? or test creating of new ones?
  • re-run webmention.rocks (or equivalent) tests somehow

• tool to find blogs of people I follow on twitter (e.g. generating a OPML file I can subscribe to in a reader)
  • observation: quite a few have patreon links there instead of their blogs (since only one is possible)

general inbox

• <Zegnat> sknebel, can I file a feature request? ;) author parsing on h-feed (about the authorship thingy)

• TODO for self: compare X-Ray's feed handling with documented algorithms/patterns, document differences if they exist
