A developer journal with structured code examples, tags and RSS export — working example

Good for

  • Build a developer journal from my project notes, with code blocks, topic search and an RSS download.
  • Teams that need an editable local artifact with traceable inputs

Not for

  • No CMS, comments, newsletter delivery or Markdown HTML execution; publishing requires your own static host.
  • A hosted backend or synchronized multi-user service

How to use it

You say

  • Use the PopNow skill "Developer Journal Site" (developer-journal-site) for this: Build a developer journal from my project notes, with code blocks, topic search and an RSS download.

Then try

  • Apply our actual data and explain any rejected fields.

  • Adapt the layout to our brand and quote optional PopNow media first.

What to have ready

  • JSON {author,description,siteUrl,posts:[{id,title,date,tags,summary,blocks:[{type,text}]}]}. Blocks use paragraph, heading or code; siteUrl must be an owned HTTPS address when publishing.
  • Your final audience, labels and publication destination
  • Owned assets and verified claims for any public version

Questions

What input does this workflow need?

JSON {author,description,siteUrl,posts:[{id,title,date,tags,summary,blocks:[{type,text}]}]}. Blocks use paragraph, heading or code; siteUrl must be an owned HTTPS address when publishing.

What does it calculate or validate?

Sort valid dates, search titles/tags/summary/body, estimate reading time, render code as text, and generate escaped RSS from the same records.

What is outside its scope?

No CMS, comments, newsletter delivery or Markdown HTML execution; publishing requires your own static host.

Can I use it without an API key?

Yes. The local template, validation and exports work without a key. PopNow media is optional and requires a quoted, approved API USD budget.
