smog is intended to be a lightweight yet feature-complete blog platform for individuals and organizations. I wrote smog in about 60 hours to learn web development using Python and the Flask microframework, after trying other blog platforms and deciding they weren't for me.
I want smog to be a pleasure for bloggers, readers, and also developers who want to tweak or extend what their blog can do. Smog is free software hosted on GitHub.
Markdown is a simple markup language (with a very shallow learning curve) that lets you format your text and add rich content like images, links, and lists. Compared to HTML, plain text with markdown syntax is pretty darn readable. Here is a quick reference, you'll learn it in 10 minutes.
Why you may like smog as a blogger
- Write posts in Markdown, plain text, or HTML
- Create blog posts and static pages; ideal for a web site with a mix of regular/new content and permanent/curated content like project pages or your resume
- Supports multiple content authors, each with their own account
- Guest comments are protected with a CSRF token and reCAPTCHA, which drastically limits the number of spam comments you'll need to deal with
- Comments can be enabled/disabled per post and are easy to moderate
- Super mobile-friendly. Also renders nicely without JavaScript, because some people don't want to run your JavaScript
