I rewrote my entire website in React and in the process, ended up making my own static site generator.

The static site generator is much simpler than a dedicated one like Hugo, but still maintains the features I need:

• All posts are written in Markdown
• Post metadata is stored as YAML frontmatter
• Support for relative images
  • Allows te images to be placed in the same folder as the Markdown files

I mainly used this project to get more familiar with React (through React Router) and styling with vanilla CSS.

(I use bun, but you should be able to use most Node.js package managers, like npm

1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependencies with bun install
3. Run the development server with bun run dev
