Nice
Best way to edit your web site is to just use a text editor such as vi or vim
@vaporeon_ the best way to edit your web site is to write 1200 lines of bash code that generate html from markdown files using pandoc
@wallhackio At least it's not JavaScripts...
@wallhackio IDK, to me it feels better to write a web page directly in HTML than waste my time with Markdown or whatever, but if it works for you, then it works for you
Your way might have of being easier to convert to Gopher if you ever want to put up a Gopher server...
@vaporeon_ I find HTML deeply unpleasant to write and read. I dunno it's just a me thing
@wallhackio @vaporeon_ i love HTML i just hate writing the same HTML fur every page of a site with a shared theme. i should consider trying server side includes sometime
@aescling @wallhackio Sometimes I feel tempted to just remove all of the CSS, but also I do think it looks pretty, even if it's stupid and childish and no serious website looks like this
@aescling @wallhackio Removing the CSS wouldn't change anything about having to manually create the navigation bar every time, though... Maybe that "use preprocessor macros" idea I had wasn't that bad, but also it is inconvenient compared to just :w and reloading and instantly seeing your changes
@aescling @wallhackio OK, good point
Most of "theme" is handled by CSS on my web page, but I do have to write some things manually such as the navigation bar at the top (the one that says things like
Home > Blog > My new printer) and remember to have a<DIV CLASS="MAIN">(sorry... some old browsers were unhappy with<ARTICLE>if I remember correctly) so that the CSS actually works...
