✏️ Content of robinwieruch.de - Write guest blog posts or improve the content. Your help means a lot to me.
The source markdown for robinwieruch.de, a long-running blog about JavaScript and React. Each post is a folder holding an index.md and its images, and the README doubles as a guide for fixing existing posts or writing guest articles. It suits people who want to read or edit the raw posts, or who want to see how a single-author tech blog is laid out on disk.
- Each post is one folder with its markdown and images beside it, so an article can be read, grepped, or diffed without a CMS. The layout is plain, and that is the point.
- The guest guidelines are specific enough to act on. Code goes in fenced blocks with line highlighting instead of screenshots, images need at least 1024x768, and the Prettier settings are spelled out. Most blogs never write this down.
- Edits are ordinary pull requests against markdown, so a typo fix or a stale version number is a small diff a reviewer can check. The README also says up front that a full guest article needs approval before writing, which saves contributors from drafting something that will never run.
- This is a content dump, not a code repo. There is nothing to run, no tests, and no build, so the repo cannot confirm that a snippet still works against current library versions.
- A lot of the back catalogue covers stacks that have moved on, including Create React App, Firebase auth flows, Gatsby, and early Deno posts. Nothing in the repo marks which posts are stale, so a reader has to check dates on the live site.
- Frontmatter is left out by design, so the markdown alone does not say when a post was written or which library versions it targets. That is the main thing a reader needs to judge a tutorial, and it is missing here.
- The guidelines are written around one author's house style, such as a printWidth of 70 and h1 for titles, and every banner image is committed alongside the text, which makes a clone much heavier than a text-only repo. A guest post that deviates will need rework before it can merge.
