A New Vibe-coded Site Builder

A while back I moved this site to Obsidian Publish (see the post 2025-10-15) and it went okay. However, the hosting cost me $8 per month and although editing posts using Obsidian was convenient, its limitations regarding updating the code of the blog itself made me miss consider Moving Back To Github Pages (or Static Hosting Saga 3). However, I didn’t have time to rebuild some Node.js based scripts that used to generate my static site from Markdown files in a way that was compatible with Obsidian.

Recently, though, I decided to use Claude code to take a crack at building a kind of V2 of my original site builder script but that consumed my Obsidian notes as the input. Although it took several prompts and a bit of back and forth ([here’s the PR](https://github.com/omardelarosa/website/pull/66, if you’re curious), the result isn’t too shabby:

Anyway, this post should be living on that new static site and I have now canceled my Obsidian publish subscription and reverted back to using a static site.
