Welcome to the journal

First post of the Gaulois.tech journal. Here we'll put release notes, thoughts on the tools, and anything that deserves more than three README lines.

Why a journal

The tools have their own pages. But there’s everything that happens around the tools: technical choices, grumbling about this or that exotic file format, usage feedback, small improvements that deserve a word beyond the commit message.

That’s what this journal is for.

How it works

Each post is a plain Markdown file. No database, no backoffice that crashes on a Sunday evening, no WYSIWYG that silently converts my straight quotes into curly ones.

Rendering is done via Astro Content Collections. The file you’re reading right now is a .md in src/content/journal/en/, and the page you see is generated from a single template [slug].astro.

What’s coming next

  • Notes on LocAtMe (the Navionics format gave me gray hairs)
  • Probably a post on shared OVH hosting in 2026
  • A reflection on why I insist on a single design system for four modules

See you soon.
