I had read about IndieWeb, webmentions, and Fediverse a few years ago and was very excited about it! It's a monumental under taking and a great example of good (read: ethical) tech.
But I am not a web developer 🤣, and while I can appreciate what the engineers have accomplished, I was never too sure how to get it going, end-to-end.
I've been burning quite a few tokens while LLMs are still basically "free" (see shellac's analysis), so I decided to let Claude Code slop together a plan from the following resources, particularly the posts by engineers that have implemented for their own static sites.
You can see this site's source to see how the implementation went. I suppose it's not tested until this post goes live and I see it federated.
Update: it's working!
