#tinyblog A simple blog engine written in scala with akka-http, bootstrap and github as storage. The following technologies are used to build this blogging engine:

• Akka-http as webserver and request routing
• Spray framework : Json deserializer uses Spray library.
• Twirl : is a template engine to render HTML.
• MapDB: an embedded high performance databased written in Krotlin (a another JVM based language) to store commit history and blog metadata.
• Github: blog content was written in Markdown, then commit to Github under repository: http://github.com/whatvn/whatvn.github.io. There will be a worker (implemented inside blog engine to fetch data from Github and display content on this blog.
• vujs to build html interface
• Pegdown: Markdown parser to parse markdown text format to html document (used to use Markwrap but it does not provide a method to build parser with timeout option).
• Akka: To build worker and logging stuff.

Demo:

There’s a running demo version of this blogging engine here: http://tinytechie.net/ . I will move all my personal blog to use this blogging engine as soon as possible.
