Co-existing on Leaflet and a self-published blog on the web

At the time of writing this, I’m happening to work on creating a leaflet.pub integration on my personal blog, and here I want to explain my reasoning for doing this. This post also serves as a demo / test data to integrate: after all, I need to pull posts from somewhere, don’t I?

Why?

I feel like leaflet is a nice and easy space to write on, and can be used for less serious stuff. i.e. while I wouldn’t write an upcoming post on a did:plc pseudo-attack-pseudo-controlling-a-inherent-property-of-how-plcs-are here, I would definitely write something light-hearted on here, maybe a short story of some sorts.

How?

I wish I could answer that right now. At the moment, I am just done with setting up the build tooling to pull data during the static site build, and all I know is that I’m going to use the atproto Python package, and somehow using the standard.site lexicon there.

Worth it?

Most definitely not, as I don’t think that I’m going to post here much, and also.. most definitely NOT going to re-build my static website image every time I do something on Leaflet, which means that it’ll inherently be out-of-sync from the true data located here.
