VitePress and Vite plugins, plus command-line apps for homelabs and ham radio. This site is the hub for all of them, and it is built with the plugins it documents.
Menus built from your folder structure, ordered and titled by tiny plain-text files.
See the sidebar plugin
Inline status badges for VitePress, VS Code and Obsidian, plus site-wide pages that list every tag.
See the tags plugin
Define a term once and every mention in your docs gets a hover definition.
See the glossary plugin
One line in a page gets an estimated reading time, computed at build time.
See the reading-time plugin
Keep a .sql, .zip or .xlsx next to the page that links to it, and the link downloads the file.
See the downloads plugin
A stray Array<string> or {{ }} in your Markdown shows up as text instead of breaking the build.
See the HTML Escape plugin
Smaller images in the build output, and a placeholder instead of a failed build when one goes missing.
See the image plugins
Website and host monitors with desktop and push notifications, and a callsign lookup for the terminal.
