Testing out the QnDSSG4B - Reformatted

I could've very easily just spent a bunch of time looking for a static site generator for blogs and use one of the 500 thousand available, but I didn't. Because I'm a programmer. So instead of spending like 1 hour max looking for one, I spent an entire day making my own That's right! Say welcome to the Quick And Dirty Static Site Generator For Blogs (or QnDSSG4B) This is myfirstblog post I make using it, and I do have to say the interface is definitely a lot more pleasing than simply editing a file. I even get the red undreline if I make a spelling mistake! Yay! I can be held accountable for my grammar mistakes!Now, I can't say this is really that great yet, given the fact that I still need to put HTML tags in on my own, instead of being able to upload images and shit, I instead need to write img src="fuckyou.png" and shit. At least I'm not getting a headache from having to stare at my writing in the middle of 50 lines of equally as awful HTML. Do I plan to make this thing easily accessible with lots of documentation and have it become a standard? - No. The main reason I even developed my own is because I didn't wanna dig through the 100 different static site generators out there, why should I add my own fire to the forest fire? Is the code any good? - No? To be honest I wouldn't be able to fully explain to you how my code works, if I could at all, a whole ass function was straight up copy and pasted from stack overflow (whom I have credited in the code itself cuz I'm not an asshole. That is also the only stack overflow code I've ever credited in my life) Can you use this and change the code and do other shit? - I mean sure you can give it a go, good luck. This is probably, as of right now, the worst static site generator to have ever existed. No one will use it except me And I am not even gonna check that the generated HTML file is actually functional before publishing it to the website, so if it comes out as a broken and unreadable mess, it is what it is! (Future Mel note: Yea it is shit) -Mel P.S. I coded a good portion of this while babysitting my little brother. Hopefully I get paid back for my babysitting journey with a nice cup of Monster. (I DID!!!)
