Migration to Ghost 1.x

Yes, it has been more than half a year since this blog was left abandoned. Here and there, wild weeds overrun my articles, and traffic has inevitably declined.


Several reasons explain this desertion: there is of course my perpetual lack of time, but also (above all) the slow progress of the various web technologies I was planning to use to give my Ghost blog a facelift. Fortunately, over the last few weeks, this little world has been moving along nicely.

For one thing, NuxtJS, VueJS and the whole merry band of JavaScript frontend frameworks have made tremendous progress. Nowadays, it is realistic to develop applications relying on these technologies without paying for the breakages of a work-in-progress API. On that topic, I will soon unveil a web application visualizing the similarities of role-playing game characters. This project was originally personal and exploratory, but it could ultimately serve as a basis for other things. The application is already functional, but performance, interface and security optimizations are needed before its release. Its temporary code name is "Raw Naw Port Mo-hraw" (my congratulations to those who will figure out why), and it already serves as the foundation for all my academic projects.

For another, Ghost has finally reached 1.0. The first consequence is that it was necessary to install a new version and migrate the content of the previous one. That is why the very personal layout of the Archives d'Anubis has been replaced with a more professional, but less unique theme: the blog is now white as snow, and themes developed for versions <1.0 are not necessarily compatible. I plan to keep this layout until I have a truly convincing new version available. Let's hope it doesn't scare away my few readers!
