This is the work of around 100 anonymous contributors in 2016 and 2017.
What is this?
It’s a static archive of the Hoar website from the mid-twenty-teens (i.e. 2016 to 2017).
Static?
The original Hoar site involved a long-running server that cost a lot to run. When we shut down, we took a snapshot of the site and replaced the server with a folder of HTML files connected to the internet. More recently, browsers changed and our snapshot stopped working so well. We wrote a script to fix it, and belatedly noticed that part of what that script did was to extract all the content from the site as structured data, so configured a trendy static site generator to turn that data into a proper static site.
