blogus

This is the first entry in the devlog of blogus, my static blog generator. I’ve laid the foundation of the project, which you can see in the screenshot. The binary reads the directory you give it (or the cwd). Then, it transforms the contained Markdown files into HTML. You can then access every article at <host>/<article-title>, with link support and scripting. Styling and font support is planned.

I want to add support for hot-reloading and discovery of articles, recursive discovery (meaning you can nest articles into directories), and some other neat stuff. I’ll make a page with the planned features, so I can track it as well. It’s currently in a not-very-up-to-date text file, so that’s my next goal.
