The kind of posts written here
Built like a community app
Everything a developer post needs, nothing it does not.
Your profile is your blog
Cover banner, portrait, bio, a pinned intro and categories, all at your own handle.
Posts that respect code
Dark code panels that keep indentation, a copy button, and contents for long posts.
Tags across every blog
Tag a post and it joins a page with posts on the same topic from other writers.
Threads worth reading
Anyone can reply with a name. A moderator reads every guest reply before it appears.
# the Follow button is a feed
$ curl westscript.com/<handle>/feed.xml
# every writer at once
$ curl westscript.com/feed.xmlFor readers
Open the post. Read it. That is the whole flow.
No sign-up wall, no cookie banner, no feed algorithm. Posts load as plain pages, code sits in readable panels, and the Follow button is an honest RSS feed instead of a follower count.
- Reply to any post with just a name
- Browse by tag across every writer
- Vietnamese and accented text rendered properly
- Fast, server-rendered pages that work on a phone
Invitation only
