Project State & Enhancement Backlog

Living list of what's done and what's next for blog.hoelee.com. Work through these one by one — don't batch unrelated changes. Check off items as they land.

Status key: done · 🔵 in progress · not started


Done (foundation)

  • Astro 5 static + Markdown, Gitea Actions CI/CD → nginx → Cloudflare (deployed)
  • Design system: hoelee.com brand palette, Inter + JetBrains Mono, light/dark, sticky nav, code copy button
  • Brand "Mr Hoelee" (replaced "hoelee.dev")
  • Author card + Person/ProfilePage JSON-LD (E-E-A-T), article meta, reading time, related posts
  • Full SEO: canonical, Open Graph (+dims), twitter:card, favicon (all sizes), RSS + sitemap
  • Category pages (/categories/, /categories/[category]/)
  • Locale scheme: English flat in posts/, Chinese in posts/zh/ (lang derived from folder, no lang: frontmatter)
  • Language switcher in nav — links to the same post in the other language (auto-matches by zh/ prefix; falls back to section landing when no translation)
  • Locale-aware nav labels (EN: Posts/Categories/About/RSS; ZH: 文章/分类/关于/RSS)
  • Dark mode default (light is opt-in via toggle)
  • Case study post "How I Host This Blog" — docker-compose sample + real install gotchas (from commit history)
  • Chinese translation of the case study (posts/zh/how-i-host-this-blog.md)
  • hello-world intro post — "What I write about" skills map + corrected business framing
  • Business framing corrected everywhere: website design & development = primary; email hosting = secondary (not the focus)
  • Knowledge guides in docs/ (content, design, seo, ops, post-guideline) + README index + hoelee-blog skill
  • Both repos public (Gitea + GitHub) with title/description/homepage/topics + v1.0.0 release

Tier 1 — Content (80% of value; do this first)

  • Write the 2 flagship case studies — highest ROI, these are the portfolio:
    • "How I Built the DigiKedai Telegram AI Bot" (DSM Docker + Cloudflare tunnel webhook + LiteLLM)
    • "Self-Hosting a Mem0 Memory Stack" (API + LiteLLM + pgvector)
  • 23 gotcha posts from real debugging history (short, Google-friendly):
    • "The Traefik forward-auth gotcha that cost me a day"
    • "Site-to-site OpenVPN behind CGNAT"
    • "Fixing the WordPress /cv 301→404 chain" (from own audit)
  • "Hard job → post" habit — every solved problem becomes a notes entry the same week (template in docs/content-guide.md §4)

Tier 2 — Structural gaps

  • Tag pages — tags currently render as labels only; add /tags/[tag]/ archive pages for fine-grained discovery + internal linking
  • Categories page shows all 7 categories (not just those with posts) — signal intended coverage; show "0 posts / coming soon" for empty ones
  • Search — AstroPaper-style fuzzy search (low priority until >20 posts)
  • Dedicated /zh/posts/ and /zh/categories/ archive pages — currently zh nav links point to /zh/ landing; split into real archives when Chinese content grows

Tier 3 — Polish / later

  • Google Search Console submission — submit sitemap-index.xml for faster indexing
  • Newsletter / email capture — only after real traffic exists

Conventions (non-negotiable)

  • Push git.hoelee.com first, then GitHub
  • English-first; Chinese selective (23 flagship case studies); no Malay
  • No overclaiming, especially Web3
  • Name identity: "Lee Teong Hoe" / "Mr Hoelee" + same photo + same sameAs handles everywhere
  • Business framing: website design & development is primary; email hosting is secondary
  • See docs/post-guideline.md for post-writing rules (title case, locale structure, frontmatter, etc.)
