Hello, High Signals
A quick introduction to the High Signals blog and what to expect.
Hello, High Signals
Welcome to High Signals — a place for writing that cuts through the noise.
What this is
This blog is built with Phoenix LiveView and stores posts as plain markdown files. Short URLs are tracked in a Postgres database so every campaign link can be measured independently.
How short links work
Each visit is recorded — including timestamp, IP, user agent, and referer — so you know exactly where your readers are coming from.
Writing posts
Drop a .md file in priv/posts/ with YAML front-matter:
---
title: "My Post Title"
date: 2026-03-19
description: "Optional excerpt shown under the title."
---
Your post body goes here.
Code example
Here is a tiny Elixir snippet just to confirm that code blocks render properly:
defmodule Greeting do
def hello(name), do: "Hello, #{name}!"
end
IO.puts Greeting.hello("world")
That's it — enjoy writing!
