    I've made an RSS feed

    I was thinking of the ways how could people subscribe to the blog without checking it periodically or me having to post on social media any time that I post a new article. The first thing that came to my mind was an RSS feed. I thought that it should be very easy to create one (and it is) so I started to work on it last weekend. RSS is pretty old specification (talking in software years) and there are few alternatives that are trying to make online syndication more generic or better said adaptable for broader / modern use. RSS stands for Rich Site Summary. It is a specification for a XML formatted file which should provide short summary of the site content. First version was built in 1999 and the standard is still de facto standard across the web.

  • How I've built my website

    Creating my own website with blog was something I had in my mind from start of my professional career after I left school. I had a lot of new experience with development which I wanted to elaborate on and save into a small library so I can take a look back on my thoughts how they evolve over time. This was like 6 years ago. I had a successful first attempt at doing so. I created a WordPress with the simplest theme I’ve found and wrote some articles. I’ve published it under a domain of one of the first startups I’ve been part of. I still have a backup of the Wordpress database somewhere so I can export those articles here when I will feel like doing so. The blog haven’t lived for long as the domain once expired and I was not satisfied with it enough to deploy it somewhere else.
