Rebuilding this site with SvelteKit 3

The old version of this site pulled posts from a Strapi CMS. That was one more server to keep alive, and when it went away the blog went with it. This rebuild keeps everything in the repo.

The stack

• SvelteKit 3 and Svelte 5 with runes
• shadcn-svelte components on Tailwind CSS 4
• shadcn/typeset for everything rendered from markdown
• adapter-node inside a small Docker image

Every page is prerendered at build time, so the Node server only has to hand out static files.

Writing a post

A post is a markdown file in content/blog/. The file name becomes the URL, and a bit of frontmatter supplies the rest:

---
title: My post
description: One-line summary for the list and social cards.
date: 2026-10-06
tags: [eBPF, Go]
draft: false
---

Code blocks are highlighted at build time with Shiki and follow the light and dark theme:

func main() {
	http.HandleFunc("/healthz", func(w http.ResponseWriter, _ *http.Request) {
		w.WriteHeader(http.StatusNoContent)
	})
	log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil))
}

What changed

Fewer moving parts means fewer things to page you at 3 a.m.
