A Standard Site
Published at 2026-09-18
Standard Site is the new hotness in the Atmosphere. To my eyes this looks like OpenGraph except with an extra smattering of the DID for identity, just to make things a little more complicated.
This is a Svelte static site so it’s a little trickier than dynamic, server-rendered content for this purpose. Fortunately there’s already a tool out to help enable static sites called Sequoia. A few command line prompts and I was good to go.
The process creates a sequoia.json file in the project root, and after my commands my file looked like:
{
"$schema": "https://tangled.org/stevedylan.dev/sequoia/raw/main/sequoia.schema.json",
"siteUrl": "https://www.christopherbroome.com",
