## Posts

- [Serving a blog post to curl: ANSI text from a static Astro site](https://typovrak.tv/posts/serving-a-blog-to-curl): curl https://typovrak.tv/posts/<slug> gets the post as coloured terminal text and a browser keeps the HTML. One Vercel rewrite on the user-agent, two prerendered text files per post, no function. Published 1 Oct, 2026.
- [Running freeCodeCamp on NixOS: the shell.nix Prisma needs](https://typovrak.tv/posts/freecodecamp-on-nixos-prisma): Prisma ships no engine for NixOS, so pnpm i on freeCodeCamp dies in postinstall. A 16-line shell.nix fixes it, as long as the nixpkgs engine matches the Prisma version. A bot closed the PR. Published 15 Sep, 2026.
- [From issue to merge in the terminal: the git and gh workflow](https://typovrak.tv/posts/github-workflow-in-the-terminal): The issue-to-merge loop is nine commands in git and gh. The catch: the branch linked to an issue does not close it, only a Closes keyword in the PR body does. Published 1 Sep, 2026.
- [My Arch Linux setup (2024, before I switched to NixOS)](https://typovrak.tv/posts/arch-linux-2024-setup): The exact setup I built on a fresh 2024 Arch install: GNOME, yay, my package list, zsh with zinit and Powerlevel10k, Docker, SSH and Git. Since rebuilt as a declarative NixOS config. Published 15 Aug, 2026.
