About barf

barf is a minimal and suckless-inspired blog generator. It is a tweaked and slightly patched version of Karl Bartel’s fantastic blog.sh.

Why?

This project was created by me, Bradley Taunt, out of frustration with overly complex and bloated blogging options. I tried so many “minimal” generators but each one ended up having some glaring issue or heavy reliance on dependencies.

I wanted to have a system that I could easily replicate on any Linux machine. Something that didn’t require me to download half the internet just to get up and running. I’m a sucker for keeping things simple.
