+<h1>89 Blog Posts in a Single HTML File</h1>
+<p>2021-04-22</p>
+<p><em>This is no longer the current setup of my blog</em>. I have switched back to Jekyll for performance reasons. I'll be leaving this post up as a point of reference though :)</p>
+<hr />
+<p>This is my personal blog (if that wasn't already obvious). I currently have 89 blog posts living here. But I have done something magical today:</p>
+<p>All of these articles are rendered inside a <em>single HTML file</em>. 🤯</p>
+<h2>What Sorcery is This?!</h2>
+<p>No magic here - I'm just using my own personal static site generator called <a href="https://phpetite.org">PHPetite</a>. You can find all the code and more information about PHPetite on the <a href="https://github.com/bradleytaunt/phpetite">official Github repo page</a>. Please note that this project is still very much a WIP, so go easy on me when pointing out bugs or issues!</p>
+<h2>Pingdom Stats</h2>
+<p>Before we get into more details on how everything is built, let's take a quick look at some of my website stats (not that pure numbers are 100% accurate of user experience):</p>
+<ul>
+<li>99 Performance Grade</li>
+<li>951 ms Load Time</li>
+<li>231.3 KB Page Size (thank you Netlify compression!)</li>
+</ul>
+<p><a href="https://tools.pingdom.com/#5e169d6a82000000">See all the Pingdom details for yourself</a></p>
+<p>Now the <code>Page Size</code> will certainly change as more blog posts are added over time, but if the total webpage size is roughly 230 KB with 89 blog posts, I figure that gives me the ability to add another 200 or so posts before I cross the <a href="https://1mb.club">1MB threshold</a></p>
+<p>I'll deal with how to load in the content more efficiently when that times comes...</p>
+<h2>What About Images?</h2>
+<p>Good question. Since a large portion of my articles tend to be focused on design and CSS, visual examples are somewhat important. So how do I avoid loading in all the individual images on every single post into this single HTML "website"?</p>
+<p>Easy - I don't load any images at all.</p>
+<p>I now simply set any images that are not included in the current, visible <code>section</code> to <code>display: none</code>. This avoids breaking things with the RSS feed.</p>
+<p>Here is an image example of an old Dribbble shot I created years ago:</p>
+<p><figure>
+<div class="img-parent">
+<img loading="lazy" src="/placeholder-image.webp" onclick="this.src='/public/images/aqua-ui-css-buttons.webp'" alt="Aqua UI buttons">
+</div>
+<figcaption><b>Click the placeholder to load in the real image</b><br>Example Dribbble shot for testing. Feel free to click the default image in order to load the correct Dribbble source. <a href="/public/images/aqua-ui-css-buttons.webp">View full size image</a>.</figcaption>
+</figure></p>
+<p>I have noticed that Safari / Firefox on iOS renders the imagery as broken image links - I plan to look into this further to avoid that confusion. For now it works well on desktop Chromium and Firefox.</p>
+<pre><code>&lt;figure&gt;
+ &lt;div class=&quot;img-parent&quot;&gt;
+ &lt;img loading=&quot;lazy&quot; src=&quot;/placeholder-image.webp&quot; onclick=&quot;this.src='https://res.cloudinary.com/bradtaunt/image/fetch/q_auto:low/v1570124593/https://uglyduck.ca/public/images/aqua-ui-css-buttons.webp'&quot; alt=&quot;Aqua UI buttons&quot;&gt;
+ &lt;/div&gt;
+ &lt;figcaption&gt;&lt;b&gt;Click the placeholder to load in the real image&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Example Dribbble shot for testing. Feel free to click the default image in order to load the correct Dribbble source. &lt;a href=&quot;https://res.cloudinary.com/bradtaunt/image/fetch/q_auto:low/v1570124593/https://uglyduck.ca/public/images/aqua-ui-css-buttons.webp&quot;&gt;View full size image&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/figcaption&gt;
+&lt;/figure&gt;
+</code></pre>
+<h2>How's the SEO?</h2>
+<p>Probably terrible to be honest. One single file for all blog posts is something Google will most likely frown upon. Whatever - it's my personal blog so I don't really give a shit.</p>
+<h2>RSS Feed</h2>
+<p>If you recently added my old RSS feed, I'm sorry, but you'll have to update. The new feed is located at <a href="https://tdarb.org/feeds/posts.xml">tdarb.org/feeds/posts.xml</a>. I made this change to avoid spamming the current feed users.</p>
+<h2>Tasty Dog Food</h2>
+<p>At the end of the day, by moving my personal blog over to PHPetite, it makes me more aware of current bugs and restrictions within the project. I feel like this will help me to improve this static site generator even more over time, instead of letting it die a slow death ignored on Github.</p>
+<p>I hope you enjoyed this little breakdown and maybe even want to try out PHPetite for yourself? 😉</p>
