sipp.so - minimal code sharing

I'm preparing a blog post on progamming minimalism and in the process built a new app based on the principles I keep finding myself align with more and more.

Introducing Sipp

og

A while back I released an app called Snippets that was also designed to be a simple code sharing app. While it did have all the bells and whistles, it was also slow, bloated, and depended on too many external pieces. Sipp is a minimal code sharing app that is built soley on top of Bun and is designed to be self hosted. You can still deploy it on different platforms or even use the hosted instance linked above, but the idea is you can run this and truly own the files, and perhaps put it under your custom domain like sipp.stevedylan.dev.

Since it's purely Bun, html, css, js, and the builtin sqlite module, Sipp is incredibly fast and efficient. With my own personal usage and testing on an entry level DO droplet, it runs at 2% CPU and only 50mb of memory while idle. The codebase is pretty well documented and simple enough that you can customize it yourself, add new features, and truly build the experience you want.

With every day that goes by, the more that I experience, this is what personal software should feel like.
