Quality of Life Improvements

2024-06-06

I haven't circled back to barf in quite a bit of time, so I'm happy to announce a small update mainly focused on quality of life improvements! I'll keep things brief and get right into the core changes:

Automatic detection of your operating system (supports Linux, macOS and OpenBSD currently)

• barf now checks your current OS and sets aliases accordingly
• this removes the need to hard-set your own aliases or run syslinks

Added a semantically valid RSS feed

• barf initially launched with Atom support only, now a separate RSS feed is generated at build time

Removed hardcoded feed links from header.html

• You now only need to set your main domain at the top of the core barf file.

That's it really! I've also updated the original blog posts about setting up barf on macOS and OpenBSD to reflect these changes.

Cheers!
