I have changed the technology stack for this blog.
This blog was hosted and built on GitHub pages (key technologies: Jekyll and Markdown).
I have moved to:
Blog posts written in AsciiDoc
JBake (which uses Asciidoctor)
Maven for the build
GitHub pages to host the output
If you are interested by this setup, have a look at this example project: jbake-sample
My motivations are:
Now that I am using Asciidoctor a lot, I really prefer writing my blog posts in the AsciiDoc format.
I like to be able to work offline (my use case is "working in the train"). With this setup I can preview the output on my machine before I push the commit to GitHub.
RSS/Atom feed is requested for the Eclipse Planet (I cannot use HubPress for this reason).
I still use GitHub to host the sources (because I believe in the pull request model) and to host the final result (hosting on GitHub.io is great).
Next steps:
Continuous integration with Travis CI
Change/improve the Blog theme
