About this Blog

After anon in the scanlation thread mentioned he was generating a static site from just one text file and hosting it on github, I was intrigued mostly because the wiki I set up as an archive on fandom kicked me out for inactivity and tried to build something of my own. He was generous enough to give me his code, which was a great help.
This weird blog/wiki-ish hybrid thing was built using a combination of a lacking understanding of html, python and Jekyll, a static site generator. Similarly to what anon made, this site is generated from one central YAML data file containing information about the entries I want displayed on the page, and a couple Jekyll templates.
This is also the first time I've built a website, so if you want to keep your sanity, I recommend you don't look at any of the html. It's an absolute mess.

In conclusion, I put way too much work into a website that at most 2 people will use per year. But it's my website, damn it!
If you want to have a look at the inner workings, I'd be happy to share the source with you. Just throw me a mail and I'll probably notice within a couple weeks.
