been working on a open source replacement for bento.me (which is shutting down) using your bluesky pds to save your data. still very much work in progress, but can be tried it out here (editing your blento currently desktop only): blento.app source code (svelte ofc :P): github.com/flo-bit/blento

Bento -> blento, name checks out. Apologies can you briefly describe bento?

bento originally describes a type of layout where you have different sized boxes in a grid (the name comes from japanese bento boxes, that have different sized compartments). that's been a trend for a while in web design and bento.me just made it easy to create your own website using that layout

but there's lots of other websites that use that layout (apple probably made it as famous as it is now, see image), i really like nevflynn.com as a nice portfolio example too, so bento.me == linktree/personal-website-creator but in a bento grid layout
