It targets users who want a site generated from local files rather than a server-side blog engine. ### Project history The official site describes BlazeBlogger as a simple but capable command-line CMS that produces static content without a database server or server-side scripting. The site footer and metadata place the project site in the 2009-2011 period and identify Jaromir Hradilek as the copyright holder. The documentation page records the 1.2.0 User Guide and points to the Google Code project page, bug tracker, discussion group, and downloadable quick-reference material. ### Adoption history The official site archives release and packaging posts for Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, Slackware, and Ubuntu, while the input package facts also list Homebrew, MacPorts, Nix, pacman, and zypper names. Its audience was the Unix user who wanted blog publishing to feel like editing files and running commands. ### How it is used The Homebrew package exposes the `blaze` front command and helper commands including `blaze-init`, `blaze-add`, `blaze-edit`, `blaze-list`, `blaze-make`, and `blaze-config`. The curated config location is the local `.blaze/` project directory. ### Why package nerds care BlazeBlogger is package-nerd interesting because it is a static site generator before that category fully consolidated around Git-hosted Markdown workflows. It reflects an era when distribution packages, manpage-like commands, and local directory state were enough to make a personal publishing stack. ### Timeline - 2009: Official site archive begins and site metadata uses BlazeBlogger 1.2.0 as generator. - 2010: Official archive includes distro packaging posts and 1.1.x releases. - 2011: BlazeBlogger 1.2.0 and its User Guide are published; official site shows Slackware package news in May. ### Related projects - Related projects include other static site generators and command-line blog tools such as nanoblogger, Jekyll, ikiwiki, and the author's linked pidiblog project. ### Sources - - - - input source_facts.executables - input source_facts.package-manager ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
