liquidex's treehouse

Welcome to the Construct.

If you haven't seen the treehouse yet, you may wanna. It's pretty darn cool.

Please note that this repository contains spoilers. So if you like exploring by yourself, you may wanna do that first before diving into the source code.

Spoilers for what?, you might ask.

…

You have been warned.

Building

To serve the website on http://localhost:8080:

cargo run -p treehouse serve

This will start a server on port 8080. You can change the port by using --port, but note that you'll also have to override the website address. The treehouse hardcodes all URLs to point to its own address and therefore needs a base URL, provided with $TREEHOUSE_SITE or more permanently by setting site inside treehouse.toml:

TREEHOUSE_SITE="http://localhost:8081" cargo run -p treehouse serve --port 8081

If you're developing, you may wanna use cargo-watch:

cargo watch -- cargo run -p treehouse serve

The website will reload itself automatically if you change any file in the repository.

Contributing

If you found a typo, be my guest. Just note that some typos are intentional, please make sure you understand the full context of the sentence.

If you found a bug, by all means please submit a fix. (or at least an issue.)

Since this is my personal website, I don't accept outside contributions for new content. Because then it would no longer be my treehouse.

If you wish to create something similar to liquidex's treehouse, you probably want to use more mature software instead of my scrappy, opinionated piece of art. Check out Logseq - it has static site generation built in, with a much more approachable UI, cross-device sync, and great customizability through community-made themes and plugins.
