This is no longer the current setup of my blog. I have switched back to Jekyll for performance reasons. I'll be leaving this post up as a point of reference though :)

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:

All of these articles are rendered inside a single HTML file. 🤯

What Sorcery is This?!

-

No magic here - I'm just using my own personal static site generator called PHPetite. You can find all the code and more information about PHPetite on the official Github repo page. Please note that this project is still very much a WIP, so go easy on me when pointing out bugs or issues!

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):

Now the Page Size 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 1MB threshold

-

I'll deal with how to load in the content more efficiently when that times comes...

-

What About Images?

-

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"?

-

Easy - I don't load any images at all.

I now simply set any images that are not included in the current, visible section to display: none. This avoids breaking things with the RSS feed.

Here is an image example of an old Dribbble shot I created years ago:

Click the placeholder to load in the real image
Example Dribbble shot for testing. Feel free to click the default image in order to load the correct Dribbble source. View full size image.

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.

How's the SEO?

-
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.

-
RSS Feed

-
If you recently added my old RSS feed, I'm sorry, but you'll have to update. The new feed is located at tdarb.org/feeds/posts.xml. I made this change to avoid spamming the current feed users.

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.

I hope you enjoyed this little breakdown and maybe even want to try out PHPetite for yourself? 😉
