A photography site that updated itself when I dropped new images into a folder | general |
A Webpack script that took a directory of full-size photos and produced a static site with multiple resized variants per image. Drop a new photo into the source folder, run the build, get a deployable site.
The reason this exists at all: I take walks with a camera. Most of what I shoot isn't good, but the act of walking slowly with a frame to think about is the most reliable way I know to come back with an idea for whatever I'm working on. The site was an excuse to make that habit visible.
If I rebuilt it today I'd use Astro, which is what this site runs on.
