I wanted to migrate my blog to a static site generator, and chose Hakyll, since it is written in Haskell. You can install it on Fedora using:

$ sudo yum install ghc-hakyll-devel

I started looking at existing sites generated using Hakyll, and chose Ian Ross’s blog as a reference. I began customizing the same during the Hackfest organized by Changer in Pune, India on Saturday, May 5, 2012.

The 2012 posts now have permanent URLs. Posts are tagged. I have retained the CSS, current RSS feed and blog URL during this migration. You can get the sources from gitorious.org:

$ git clone git://gitorious.org/shakthimaan-blog/mainline.git
