Hello, World!

Welcome to my Gemini capsule. Est 2025.09.

This capsule is my playground for experimenting with text based content and interacting with folks in gemspace.

Want to get in touch? Shoot me an email at t [at] travisshears.com If you want to be sure only my eyes read it encrypt it with my public key.

So far I've joined the following communities here in gemspace:

What I'm currently working on:

Capsule Features

Site updates

== 2025.15.07 ==

Added directory listing to codeview.

== 2025.11.07 ==

Added request counter. Scroll to bottom of this page to check it out.

== 2025.10.07 ==

Added Guestbook!

Also added codeview feature to enable viewing source code right here on my capsule.

== 2025.10.06 ==

Added Gemlog!

== 2025.09.29 ==

Added microblog feature rendering my nostr post feed. Nice to have a dynamic source of content in this capsule to keep it fresh between updates.

Ideas for next features:

• Guestbook backed by sqlite. Would be fun to playout sqlite and golang. Could also be intresting to do a telegram notification.
• Code block rendering from my git hosting

== 2025.09.26 ==

Initial deployment

Took quite some tinkering to get everything working, but it's finally up and running! If you are reading this then I got the following architecture working:
