Classic WWF

The classicwwf.com website is statically generated using Go and hosted by GitHub.

• integralist.github.io
• classicwwf.com

Running the target make build will:

• Loop over all top-level directories (skipping cmd, assets etc).
• Convert every .md into a index.html.
• The date in the Markdown filename is used as the publish date.

Note

The folder name will become the URL slug.

Non-article pages

Most pages on the website are "article" pages writing about some topic.

Some are general pages and so they won't have a date prefixed to the filename. In these cases we render the page as HTML and when linking to the page in the side nav we'll group them under a section called "Pages".

Writing Markdown

When writing Markdown, some linters such as alex, and markdownlint will complain about various things.

For Alex, you can disable specific warnings using:

<!--alex ignore foo bar baz-->

For Markdownlint, you can disable specific warnings using:

<!-- markdownlint-disable -->
SOMETHING HERE TO IGNORE
<!-- markdownlint-enable -->

Font Icons

We use Font Awesome.

Images

To generate an animated gif from a video clip:

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -ss 02:37:40 -to 02:40:00 -vf "fps=15,scale=480:-1:flags=lanczos" assets/images/output.gif

If you need to reduce the size of a gif then reduce the dimensions by half:

ffmpeg -i input.gif -vf "scale=iw/2:ih/2" output.gif

Tip

scale=250:-1 will scale the width to 250 and auto-scale the height.

Warning

Storage of gifs with GitHub/Git requires https://git-lfs.com/

Important

The gifs were taking up too much space so I've uploaded them to giphy instead.

To convert a screenshot from a png to optimized jpg:
