★ 310 · TypeScript · updated Mar 2026

This is Ryan Dahl's personal blog, built with deno_blog and deployed on Deno Deploy. It is not a tool or library — it is the source for his blog at tinyclouds.org. The 310 stars are entirely a function of who wrote it, not what it does.

The setup is genuinely minimal: one _config.ts, a handful of .page.ts files, and Lume handles the rest. It shows how little boilerplate a deno_blog site actually needs, which is useful as a reference. The GitHub Actions CI and Deno Deploy integration are straightforward and copy-pasteable. Posts are plain Markdown with no frontmatter ceremony.

There is nothing reusable here — it is a personal blog with hardcoded content, images, and personal files committed directly to the repo. The README opens with a broken image reference and says almost nothing useful. Anyone forking this to start their own blog will need to delete everything except the config skeleton. The repo also conflates blog posts with binary assets (PNGs, JPEGs, PDFs) with no LFS, so the clone is heavier than it needs to be.
