Diskuto!

In my spare time lately, I've been reinvigorated to make some changes to my social network software. No longer "FeoBlog", I've renamed it to "Diskuto", which is Esperanto for "[a] discussion".

The big changes are:

  • A new GitHub organization to house the various repositories/tools for working with Diskuto. https://github.com/diskuto
  • Separation of UI and API.
    • The API server will remain in Rust, but it will no longer come with a bundled UI.
    • The UI is now a standalone app, written in TypeScript/Preact, for Deno.
  • SSR (server-side rendering) for content.
    • Faster to render.
    • Better SEO

There's still some work to do for me to consider this "release" done, but I'm already dogfooding it for myself on my personal server. If you're interested to try it out for yourself, let me know!
