3I came up with the idea of this web app because I wanted to be able to post something without getting sucked into the abyss of endless doomscrolling which I am *very* prone to doing.

5zensky only lets you write posts and hit send. You can read posts that you have *just* sent out on zensky. That's it. You can't read any other posts.

7The whole thing was vibe coded using Shelley, the built-in AI chatbot in an exe.dev VM. I plan to use this to understand Go project structure. I haven't audited shit -- not even the build and run instructions below this section -- so just be aware of that. Afaik Shelly did pretty good though and it both amazes and scares the shit out of me that AI agents are capable of this.

9You can try it out on: https://cooki.exe.xyz (due to some quirks of exe.dev VMs, it only works if you use `https` and not `http` in the url)

11If you see "Service unavailable" that means I -- intentionally or unintentionally -- shut down the process. Feel free to dm me on bluesky to request to turn it back on. Response not guaranteed (but most of the time i will, unless im rly busy or taking a break from the internet, just thought it'd be safer to say that)

13## Building and Running
14
15Build with `make build`, then run `./srv`. The server listens on port 8000 by default.
16
17## Running as a systemd service
18
19To run the server as a systemd service:
20
21```bash
22# Install the service file
23sudo cp srv.service /etc/systemd/system/srv.service
24
25# Reload systemd and enable the service
26sudo systemctl daemon-reload
27sudo systemctl enable srv.service
28
29# Start the service
30sudo systemctl start srv
31
32# Check status
33systemctl status srv
34
35# View logs
36journalctl -u srv -f
37```
38
39To restart after code changes:
40
41```bash
42make build
43sudo systemctl restart srv
44```
45
46## Authorization
47
48exe.dev provides authorization headers and login/logout links
49that this template uses.
50
51When proxied through exed, requests will include `X-ExeDev-UserID` and
52`X-ExeDev-Email` if the user is authenticated via exe.dev.
53
54## Database
55
56This template uses sqlite (`db.sqlite3`). SQL queries are managed with sqlc.
57
58## Code layout
59
60- `cmd/srv`: main package (binary entrypoint)
61- `srv`: HTTP server logic (handlers)
62- `srv/templates`: Go HTML templates
63- `db`: SQLite open + migrations (001-base.sql)
