What is this? This is a small blog app. Basically a static site generator.

It uses cpp to create html files from md. It also allows for some configuration with .toml files.

How do I use this?

Pretty simple. You just write blog entries into /posts. Then you run the compiled binary in /src. Voila. All the html and css is ready for deployment inside of /out directory.

How do I compile the binary?

Simple. Just run make command and the magic will happen.

How do I configure this?

There are .toml files inside of /config directory. Every entry is pretty self-explanatory.

How does the directory structure works?

Also pretty simple. You have:

• /config for config files
• /out for ready site. This folder should be on the web server.
• /posts here you write your blog posts. Every file should be in markdown format.
• /src for cpp files. Here's where you run the binary to translate your markdown posts into html.
• /style for css styling. You can tune it for your liking.
• /templates for html templates. The format is pretty simple, so you can edit it, if you like.

Why did you do this?

Because I wanted a small utility for my personal blog that doesn't have any javascript bullshit and is small, but also easy to write blog entries. Besides it's a pretty cool project, If I do say so myself.
