Half-Baked Thought

Awesome to read your IndieWeb adventure!

Also, I think my Webmention workflow is lacking. I need to implement a way to automatically rebuilt my site when new Webmentions are coming in.

I never understood the need for “instant appearance” of comments on the site. Since I publish at regular intervals, that’s not a problem for me, but if you really want, you could simply revert to client-side JS code. This is the Disqus and Webmention.io way. Do a fetch() to your Go-Jamming endpoint, and for each mention, build the HTML layout in JS, and replace it in the DOM.

That way, every page is automatically up-to-date and you sidestep the Hugo regeneration needed part.
