Ideas for showcasing retro projects?

[Esteban27]

Hi all,

I’m currently working on restoring an old Amiga and was wondering if there’s a good way to present my project in a neat, up-to-date format. Something a bit more polished than a standard forum post, ideally showing stats, past work, and plans going forward. Does anyone here use tools or setups to present this sort of thing? Looking for something that can pull it all together, pics, tech specs, links, and keep it fresh without having to redo a PDF every time.

Cheers for any tips.

Your own blog might be a good idea?

Yeah, a blog’s not a bad shout, honestly. I did something similar with an old project, and ended up throwing together a little media kit to show off pics, specs and what I’d done so far. Makes it look proper without having to faff about updating a PDF every week.

I have always liked Retro-Kit Paul's Website/blog.

https://www.retro-kit.co.uk/index.html

Unfortunately Paul passed away 2022 from cancer but the format of his pages are very nice. The community liked them enough to preserve them for him.

It's a catalog of all of his retro computers, dig down starting with manufacturer, then model, then a list of blog posts and then in depth repairs.

He did videos that are preserved on YouTube linked to his blog/site.
