The site is a static Hugo site using the Blowfish theme,
deployed to GitHub Pages by GitHub Actions on every push to master.

content/ was generated from the WordPress database dump of the original site (not included in this
repository) with the scripts in tools/wordpress-import/:
extract.pyreads the SQL dump and writes published posts, pages, authors, categories, tags and approved comments to JSON (no e-mail addresses or other private data).convert.pyturns each post into a Hugo page bundle: WordPress paragraph formatting, shortcodes (captions, Symple columns/headings, Easy Table, Speaker Deck, gists), auto-embedded YouTube/Speaker Deck/Twitter URLs, images (full-size originals, resized to ≤1600 px) and comments.
Embedded GitHub gists were copied into the posts as code blocks. Tweets were preserved from WordPress' oEmbed cache. Posts can be edited directly as Markdown now; the scripts are kept for reference.
