Webmentions on my blog, Part 1: Incoming

I built my own webmention receiver instead of relying on Webmention.io, using Node.js, Express, and a flat JSON file to avoid third-party dependencies and extra databases. Here's how it verifies incoming mentions, classifies them by type, stores them, and even polls Mastodon, Bluesky, Pixelfed, and Flickr for social reactions.

What do you know about Teleport? #IndieWeb #SmallWeb

I’m thinking of creating a simple, well-designed, single use website for my own amusement. I just need to determine the topic.

All I know is Wordpress, but will build from scratch and self host. Is there something else I should consider? I don’t code and don’t use AI. Need some sort of WYSIWYG builder. Been using Elementor Pro.

Suggestions on platform or topic?

Thought I'd have a play with the ATproto/standard.site stuff. Wasn't as straightforward as I originally thought, but I think I got it working in the end. matthewpennell.com/blog/standar... #indieweb

I have made a new website: https://artlung.neocities.org ~ and naturally I created a new IndieWeb wiki profile page https://indieweb.org/User:Artlung.neocities.org

I love that the main interface shows you your web files, and has a link to download the whole site. Nice job @neocities.org

IndieWebCamp Nürnberg 2026, here we go! #indieweb #iwc

A few weeks ago, my cloud sync tool deleted the source code for my blog. I'm not sure why it did that. I lost all the posts going back as far as early-April.

It was built with a static site generator, so whatever is on the server is fine, but I'd have to jump through hoops to get the builder back in working order.

It was easier to start over on a domain name I've been sitting on for years.

FOR YEARS!!!

The indie web is alive again! I've always preferred websites built with HTML & CSS over templates. It takes more effort, but that's what makes them feel personal. A website is a blank canvas—you hold the pencil. I recently redesigned my portfolio from scratch: wyatt.rf.gd #webdesigner #indieweb

Hey! Do you blog about Drupal? Do you have a Drupal project website? Are you just a big fan of Drupal and like to talk about it online?

Then check out this new webring I created just for Drupalers! It's the Drupalers Webring.

https://abmurrow.com/drupalers-webring

If you send in an application to join the webring, I'll review it and add you to the ring.

Applications form: https://abmurrow.com/form/drupalers-webring-application-fo

I manally review every application, so please be patient if it takes some time to get back.

Don't want to submit a form? I'll also accept a direct email or DM on mastodon with details about you and your website. Information is on the webpage I linked above.

Websites should talk about Drupal to some degree, or be users related to the Drupal universe. Non-code and non-developer websites are welcome to join!

Only rules: just be a Drupal enthusiast, please don't be an awful person (more details on the link), and make sure to display your webring code somewhere on your website, and you're good to go!

Come say hello, and let's build our own web community!

CSS gets taught as a thousand rules. The grammar underneath, the _why_ only ever gets whispered, never written down. So I wrote it down.

CSS Profile: an inquiry into the web document's identity, and the grammar of the CSS that gives it one.

Sibling to my last project, document. Fresh out of the workbench.

Intetesting results that my little "panblog" prototype is fairing better than my mkdocs site. With 3 days left, I would love some more feedback!
