Retejo

I have been working on a new type of web-server for serving static web-sites.

I started working on it recently — on August 23rd. But, have had the idea for it for a number of years.

...

What is different about this web-server for static web-sites‽

Well, of course, it supports HTML.

But, it also supports Markdown, and ActivityPub natively!

@reiver How it uses ActivityPub?

@silverpill

If an HTTP request is made on a page on a Retejo server with:

Accept: application/activity+json

For some pages Retejo will automatically create a ActivityPub / ActivityStream version of the page.

(Retejo looks at the HTML to infer what the data in the application/activity+json document should be.)

...

Currently it is working on way, but — I want to improve it a bit though.

@reiver You mean it returns something like a Page with HTML content of the page?

@silverpill

Right now is returning `Article`, if the HTML is a certain way.

(The automatic application/activity+json generation is triggered by the HTML being a certain way.)

I am going to add `Person` and `Note` soon, too.

Is this feature documented? I didn't find any information in the readme.

If it's still in development, could you create a tracking issue in the Codeberg repo? I would subscribe to it.
