(#hzrblbq) @marado I _think_ the main thing that's important if you want to build your own client, publishing tools and host your own `twtxt.txt` file is to follow some or all of the specs we've documented at dev.twtxt.net. Probably the most important and useful ones are the Metadata, Twt Subject and Twt Hash extensions. For example, having an Avatar and Description in your feed is kind of useful and nice for others 👌 And being able to participate in "threads" by using the Twt Subject and Twt Hash exts is also useful 😅

(#hzrblbq) @marado sound interesting:) I kind did this using and my own so maybe you can use some code for here. There are some API options in picoblog that you might be able to work off.

(#hzrblbq) or you could just stand up an instance of `yarnd`, there's a few folks that use it as a single-user pod 👌 (_probably we'll just support a `--single-user` option at some point_)

(#hzrblbq) @marado you are welcome. Yes I also still need a timeline render. Found some PHP attempt if this on github, but nothing that I could get working. Keep me posted about your project 😊

@prologic (#hzrblbq) yes, functionally an yarnd with --single-user is all/exactly what I'm seeking. Technically I'd then probably still want a port/clone of it into a lighter-weight, easilly hostable alternative (so you can file-drop into any tilde host, or even those FTP-only hostings…), but that's a bridge to cross when I get there…

@darch (#hzrblbq) Great stuff, thanks! That does solve my "publishing" part of the equation, even if it still doesn't work as a client (either web or mobile)…
