The site is now available through sneakerweb

12.09.2026

Man, this is already the third blog post I'm writing today. Guess I was really behind on writing these.

Lately, I came across sneakerweb, which to me seems like a neat concept and definitely something that warrants more attention. In general, the concept is simple: A site is generated with completely normal means, and cryptographically signed through the sneakerweb CLI. After the static content is signed, it is automatically imported into the user's collection. Users can then export their collections of sneakerweb sites, and share them with other users.

The spirit of the technology is to simply then share the sites through physical media, but I think it would also be quite a good method for serving static, rarely changing content to people. At least, this technology would function as a good backup solution, if nothing else.

Nevertheless, the sneakerweb domain of this site is 0b015f3de7780eb9a3f8b91f297c439b9ee25002288c9f5fe69a6a83d8feec78. Whenever I update the site, a sneakerweb version is updated automatically as well through the tooling, and made available to anyone who happens to request it in the spirit of the technology.

As the linked commit shows, I had to jump through some hoops to make sure all the site-internal links work, but in the end it wasn't that big of a deal to do. Also, having the Makefile around really helped to automate the process. Next thing on the docket is creating a .onion service for this site, stay tuned.
