Myblog is a Gatsby starter for a blog site that uses Markdown for content, Tailwind CSS and PostCSS for styling, and pnpm for dependency management.
What is Myblog?
Myblog is a Gatsby starter that builds a static blog from Markdown files. The project uses Tailwind CSS and PostCSS to style the generated pages and relies on pnpm as its package manager, with pnpm run develop starting the local development server. The repository is in early development (zero stars) and its TODO list indicates finished LaTeX support, with PWA and notebook support planned.
Key Features
- Gatsby framework — Myblog is built on Gatsby, a React-based static site generator that compiles content into pre-rendered HTML.
- Tailwind CSS styling — The starter uses Tailwind CSS for utility-first styling, configured alongside PostCSS.
- Markdown content — Blog posts are authored in Markdown files, which Gatsby processes into pages.
- LaTeX support — LaTeX rendering is already implemented, as noted in the TODO list.
- pnpm package management — Dependencies are installed and scripts run via pnpm (
pnpm install,pnpm run develop). - PWA support (planned) — The TODO list includes adding progressive web app capabilities.
- Notebook support (planned) — Support for notebooks is listed as a future addition.
