+<h1 id="89-blog-posts-in-a-single-html-file">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&#8217;ll be leaving this post up as a point of reference though :)</p>
+<hr/>
+<p>This is my personal blog (if that wasn&#8217;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 id="what-sorcery-is-this">What Sorcery is This?!</h2>
+<p>No magic here - I&#8217;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 id="pingdom-stats">Pingdom Stats</h2>
+<p>Before we get into more details on how everything is built, let&#8217;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&#8217;ll deal with how to load in the content more efficiently when that times comes&#8230;</p>
+<h2 id="what-about-images">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 &#8220;website&#8221;?</p>
+<p>Easy - I don&#8217;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>I have noticed that Safari &#47; 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>&#60;figure&#62;
+ &#60;div class="img-parent"&#62;
+ &#60;img loading="lazy" src="&#47;placeholder-image.webp" onclick="this.src=&#39;https:&#47;&#47;res.cloudinary.com&#47;bradtaunt&#47;image&#47;fetch&#47;q_auto:low&#47;v1570124593&#47;https:&#47;&#47;uglyduck.ca&#47;public&#47;images&#47;aqua-ui-css-buttons.webp&#39;" alt="Aqua UI buttons"&#62;
+ &#60;&#47;div&#62;
+ &#60;figcaption&#62;&#60;b&#62;Click the placeholder to load in the real image&#60;&#47;b&#62;&#60;br&#62;Example Dribbble shot for testing. Feel free to click the default image in order to load the correct Dribbble source. &#60;a href="https:&#47;&#47;res.cloudinary.com&#47;bradtaunt&#47;image&#47;fetch&#47;q_auto:low&#47;v1570124593&#47;https:&#47;&#47;uglyduck.ca&#47;public&#47;images&#47;aqua-ui-css-buttons.webp"&#62;View full size image&#60;&#47;a&#62;.&#60;&#47;figcaption&#62;
+&#60;&#47;figure&#62;
+</code></pre>
+<h2 id="hows-the-seo">How&#8217;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&#8217;s my personal blog so I don&#8217;t really give a shit.</p>
+<h2 id="rss-feed">RSS Feed</h2>
+<p>If you recently added my old RSS feed, I&#8217;m sorry, but you&#8217;ll have to update. The new feed is located at <a href="https://tdarb.org/feeds/posts.xml">tdarb.org&#47;feeds&#47;posts.xml</a>. I made this change to avoid spamming the current feed users.</p>
+<h2 id="tasty-dog-food">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>
