I built Doxyde as a bit of an experiment. After 25 years of programming (started on Apple II with BASIC back in '87-'88), I wanted to see what an experienced developer could build using modern development tools - especially AI-assisted development.

Back in the 2000s, in another life, I had built a CMS in Perl, and so I took the good bits I remembered from that era, rewrote the whole thing in Rust using Claude Code, and incorporated SSE / OAuth MCP so it works directly with Claude Desktop.

What came out is a simple, nifty CMS that's fast, clean, memory-safe, and works with modern tools like Claude Desktop. But most importantly, I had a blast building it :-)

Sample interaction: You: "Create a blog post about our launch, add some screenshots, publish it". AI: Creates page, uploads images, publishes in seconds!

Right now it's a pre-release / technology preview stage - rough around the edges but the core concept works well.

Check it out at https://doxyde.com (the site itself was built from Claude using Doxyde, naturally).
