Why not larger solar panels above the electricity lines? I’ve seen some rather heavy-looking metal bars for holding up the electricity lines, maybe they could also support some panels, with minimal extra material use for mounting. Up there they would provide some shade (which should be good for the grass if there is any between the tracks, given that way too dry + hot summers are becoming the norm), and require much less cleaning to stay efficient.

FWIW, the last breaking release of axum before this came out in Nov 2023.

I would also argue that the vast majority of axum tutorials still “work” - your app would panic at startup if using the old path capture syntax with a note that the syntax changed which should immediately get you back on track, and I wouldn’t expect the other features that were changed in a breaking manner to be used in tutorials much.

Ah yeah, we recently removed that example because it was kind of hard to upgrade in a nice way. One could likely take the example from the PR branch here and submit it to tonic instead. I think they might have a bigger interest in having it.

Same situation here :D

Were you also blocked by opentelemetry?

Yeah, I agree. I don’t post so often so I forget. Added now.

EDIT: Here’s a screenshot of what I mean by saying I’ve gone way overboard.

Wow! Impressive :)

You accidentally re-used the link to the Zola issue tracker there.

Oops, fixed.

it’ll depend on how amenable it is to checking a site rooted in a file:// URL so I don’t need the overhead and complexity of spinning up an HTTP server to check for broken links.

Wouldn’t you want your SSG to include a dev-server anyways? Zola has zola serve which even does incremental rebuilds, but something less sophisticated should be easy to add to your own (only took me a weekend to add to hinoki including rebuilds, though mostly starting the build from scratch on changes).

Hey, only saw this now! Have you investigated some of the options already now?

Re. Jekyll, I have the same experience which is what got me to try Zola. I find it rather nice to use at least when you’re okay with its limitations – which hasn’t always been the case… missing flexibility for output paths has been an annoyance. What really led me to make my own Rust SSG instead of forking Zola is that I found Zola to be quite hard to hack on, and Tera (its templating lang) to be a little buggy / much less elegant than minijinja API-wise.

Re. link checking, have you seen lychee? When I found out about it, the priority of building my own link checker in my SSG (that was only an idea at that point, I think) basically dropped to zero :D

the

Zola supports this? I’ve never heard of it and can’t find anything about it in the docs. I’d be interested to find out how it’s implemented there, but it does seem a bit too complex for my liking on first thought.
