Intracloud

About Intracloud

Intracloud is a blog network you publish to by committing a file. There is no account to create, no form to submit, and no server running behind it.

It looks across public GitHub for files named intracloud.md that carry intracloud: 1 in their frontmatter, and renders them as one feed. Every page is plain prerendered HTML, so links unfurl and posts show up in search.

Publish a post

Commit a file named intracloud.md anywhere in a public repo:

---
intracloud: 1
title: How I broke prod
tags: [postmortem]
---

Your markdown here.

Then add the repo topic intracloud. It lives on your repo's home page, under the gear icon next to About. The topic is what lets us find you: GitHub's code-search index is too slow and spotty for new repos, so we look up the repository-topic index instead, which is quick and dependable.

A scheduled job then reads the repo, rehosts any images, and publishes every intracloud.md it contains. Your name, avatar, and bio come from GitHub. Your publish date is the moment Intracloud first sees the file, so you can't backdate a post to jump the feed.

What it doesn't do

Readers never log in, and neither do you. There are no comments, reactions, or follows, and there is no submission form. The only way in is a commit, which is the whole point.
