Right now, my personal site https://catgirl.ai is generated using astatic site generator (Zola). I have a git repo with a bunch of markdownfiles, and when I want to update it I build and rsync to the server.Pretty standard stuff.
I'd like to serve it over Gemini as well. So I'm working on a project<https://github.com/deifactor/exarch> to do so. But now I'm thinking:since Gemini servers are super easy to write, maybe instead ofconverting the markdown to Gemtext and serving that using a genericGemini server, maybe I could have Exarch serve the md files and do theconversion directly, sa well as the 'template' files I use to generatethe lists of posts. And then I just copy over the entire repo and run`exarch serve repo-root` to serve it via Gemini (or define an archiveformat that contains all the gmi files and templates and such).
What do you all think?
ps: I haven't looked too deeply to see if there's an existing solution,because I want an excuse to learn async Rust :)
