Building a Git-Versioned Digital Garden with WordPress, Docker & Tailscale

A fast, Git-versioned, Markdown-first personal knowledge base and digital garden powered by WordPress, Docker, and Tailscale.

🏗️ System Architecture (Mermaid.js Flowchart)

Here is how local Markdown files automatically flow into this live site:

    D -->|Render PHP 8.3 & HTML| E[🔒 Caddy Reverse Proxy]
    E -->|HTTPS / Tailscale| F[🌐 Reader / Web Browser]

📐 Mathematical Equations (KaTeX LaTeX)

Supports both inline equations like $E = mc^2$ and Euler’s formula $e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0$, as well as block LaTeX equations:

$$\sum_{k=1}^{n} k^2 = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}$$
