This isn't a question of server software, or anything backend

related (unless the pages are generated by the server.)

For writing I use whatever text editor I land on at the time, mostlynvi or emacs. I did write a small elisp function that creates boilerplatefor my gemlog posts for me.

Standalone pages are written in straight text/gmi, gemlog posts are in asomewhat modified dialect for convenience. The biggest difference is thatI support YAML metadata at the top so I can set the title and date of thearticle.

Once I am done with whatever I am writing I commit and push to a gitrepository on my server. Once there the process is as described here:
