Lamb — Literally Another Micro Blog.

Barrier free super simple blogging, self-hosted.

• Drag or paste an image and Lamb converts it to WebP automatically, no upload step or asset library to manage.
• Tag posts by typing #hashtag inline; no taxonomy UI, the tags just appear.
• Full-text search included, no plugin needed and nothing to rebuild.
• Runs on SQLite, so your entire blog is one file – easy to back up, easy to move.
• Drafts and scheduled posts built in, with one-click trash and restore.
• A Micropub endpoint lets you post from iA Writer, Ulysses, or any IndieWeb-compatible app.

Getting started

Read the documentation to get started. It is published from the release branch, so it always matches the latest released version.

To preview the in-development docs on main locally, run make docs and open http://localhost:4000/lamb/.

Philosophy

• Simple over complex.
• Opinionated defaults over settings.
• Assume success, communicate failure.
