Micro blog service powered by Go - blog.lambrospetrou.com will be based on this!

I will use Go templates for the generation of the web pages.

The blog articles will be in the _posts directory.

Each post article will have its own directory/folder and inside that folder reside all images, files, markdown code and html for the article.

For example, assuming a blog post with URL firendly name how-to-make-a-blog we have the following folder structure:

Folder name: how-to-make-a-blog And inside that folder we have:

• data/
• how-to-make-a-blog.md

In order to generate the website we run the site generator which reads from the published folder all the articles and based on the html templates located in the directory _layouts creates the static website and puts everything in the directory _site.

The post.html is used to render single posts and the index.html is used to render the index page for the articles.

The generated output directory has the following structure.

_sites

• articles/:article-url/:post-data:
• s/ contains static files to be imported
  • css/ the css files
  • libs/ any javascript libraries
• index.html the home index of the website (contains all the blog articles titles and dates, links to CV and bio/work)

Configuration and user-custom variables will be added in a later version of the site generator.
