Erich Blume ce59e9951b Fix frontmatter field name: date-modified -> modified
Quartz's CreatedModifiedDate plugin recognizes `modified`, `lastmod`,
`updated`, and `last-modified` — but not `date-modified`. The wrong
field name caused Quartz to fall through to filesystem timestamps
(UTC in Dagger), showing incorrect dates on the rendered site.

Welcome to the BlumeOps (aka "Blue Mops") documentation. Here you will find hopefully everything you'll need to understand and operate my personal digital infrastructure.

New here? Start with exploring-the-docs to find your way around.

What is BlumeOps?

BlumeOps is my personal homelab infrastructure managed entirely through code. Everything lives in a single git repository, from service configs to deployment automation. Even the forgejo instance that hosts this repo is defined within it, making BlumeOps fully self-hosting. It's a digital life raft I built for myself as I went, and you can see it all from within your editor of choice. (I recommend vim.)

These services run on my home hosts, primarily an m1 mac mini named indri and a Synology NAS called sifaka. The infrastructure is networked via tailscale, with the domain eblu.me hosted via gandi, caddy providing a private reverse proxy for tailnet devices, and flyio-proxy serving public-facing services like this documentation site.

The goal of BlumeOps is threefold:

  1. To provide a rich array of useful personal services in order to manage my own digital life.
  2. To exercise my skills as a software engineer specializing in Platforms/DevOps/SRE.
  3. To act as a portfolio piece for talking about building hosted software platforms.
