Alicorn is a pure client-side blog engine which uses the gists of a user as the source for blog entries and comments. This has the benefit that it can be deployed anywhere that static file hosting is available, and is entirely source-controlled and unhackable.
Alicorn can also be configured to show posts for multiple gist users, making blog planets as simple to configure as adding a few usernames to a list.
The final goal of Alicorn is to be '''pretty swish''', with css3 transitions and some fun UI ideas, perhaps one day even some behavioural themes to modify how it all works.
Kind regards,
