Hi everyone, Marco's here. I've discovered the indieweb just some days ago and it looks so beautiful. I'm currently thinking about creating my own website too. I' studying computer science so i got the skill to do it. Do you have any suggestion about the "template to use". Blogging is still thing? I'm open to advice šŸ™‚

As for a template, https://github.com/indieweb/blank-gh-site is a good place to start!

friendly reminder scimmiarancia capjamesg, can you move the tech talk (template) to #indieweb-dev to keep this channel more inclusive and inviting?

capjamesg[d]: Thank you very much. I've surfed on neocities, there are a lot of beautiful pages. Is it the only way to discover indie pages?
#
capjamesg
There are many places to find new web pages!

I suspect Hugo given the usage of Hugo Fast Search but that's the sole evidence I have.

I do appreciate when all the serial numbers are filed off of a website.

Yes, Hugo, with obsidian for the markdown and a custom theme https://notetoself.studio/about/#colophon

I like that https://bearblog.dev/discover shows the ranking algorithm at the bottom
