This is Tom Preston-Werner's personal blog, stored as a Jekyll source repo. It's historically notable as one of the earliest public examples of the workflow that Jekyll was built to enable — static site generated from Textile/Markdown files checked into Git.
It predates the static site generator ecosystem and helped prove the model works. The layout is minimal and the separation between content (_posts/) and structure is clean. As a reference for basic Jekyll setup circa 2008-2011, it still shows the essential config clearly.
Last updated in 2015 — completely dead. Textile format is effectively obsolete; most tooling has moved on. There is nothing here you wouldn't get from the Jekyll docs or any modern starter template, and those are better maintained. The CSS is a decade-old hand-rolled stylesheet with no build pipeline.
