YAMB

Yet Another Micro Blog, heavily inspired by WorstPress.

I wanted to have a blog for a long time but customizing WordPress was a pain (world’s smallest violin). So I decided to cut the middleman and write my own blog engine. Afterall, if the whole system is yours, there’s no need to customize anything.

Have some templates, convert markdown to html, concatenate, and serve. Don’t want to manually compile and transfer generated files? Create a cron job. Just automate the boring stuff. Don’t even worry about your recent posts or an archive page, YAMB got your back.

Also, the idea of editing a file on my own computer and having it appear on the internet is very appealing to me.

Note to myself; add syntax highlighting for code blocks. :^)
