This month has mostly been about adding multilingual support to Jant. It's for bilingual authors — the common case being someone writing for both Chinese and English readers — so they can publish to each language's audience separately within Jant.

I'm also designing a feature called Repost: when you see a post you like on another blog, you can repost it to your own Jant blog along with the original URL.

Code's on GitHub [1], and there's a demo [2] to try it out.

One of the features is that every edit auto-syncs to a GitHub repo as Markdown, and the repo itself is a full Hugo site you can build independently. So the backup is always there without thinking about it.

Not released yet but almost done. Repo is public if you want to take a look.

    async function handleRequest(request) {
      const requestUrl = new URL(request.url);
      let target = "https://github.com/theowenyoung?tab=repositories"
      if(requestUrl.pathname!=="/"){
        target = "https://github.com/theowenyoung"+requestUrl.pathname
      }
      return Response.redirect(target, 302);
    }
    addEventListener('fetch', async event => {
      event.respondWith(handleRequest(event.request));
    });
