Making a custom blogging website

Making a custom blogging website from scratch is a big task and how much ever you try to avoid it you may need some server side support to make it easier for yourself I tried going down this lane for a weekend and crreated a custom blog from scratch using react and some related libraries and tools. I got a lot far But then realsised it is much easier to write my blog and thoughts here and post them here as this is easier and also supports html. I would rather convert enable email based posting here and write a python script to automatically post the blogs here. I hope I can use github in some way to post and modify the contents as and when needed. This can be helpful as I can use a deployment script to deploy to the blog or even write in markdown which will be automatically converted to html when I deploy. Although HTML gives the advantage of styling the contents then but it is stll rather a pain to use it in a blog., specially when I want to include code snippets. I hope there...
