I've decided to publish this site before fully finishing everything on it, mainly because I have too many ideas for it and if I wait until I finish implementing all of them then the site will never get published. Basically this website exists for me to try out different ideas I've had for a while, such as seeing if I can make my own markup interpreter (every blog entry and article on this site is written in my loose interpretation of WikiText and is then rendered as an HTML page using a script), and seeing how much of a functional website I can make by pushing "pre-rendered" HTML and assets to Neocities. That doesn't really sound like something worth making what is basically your own version of WordPress for, but there are several features I plan to add that you can't really do with WordPress OOTB, plus I don't really like all the JavaScript bloat that most of the pre-existing blogging solutions generate on the page, plus writing my own thing is more fun lol
Anyways, expect more features to be added to this website later on, such as a theme for it that's less boring than the current boxes on a white void that were inspired by Yahoo's Japanese site. Until next time! Hopefully I'll feel like writing a proper blog entry by then because I just kinda forced this one because this website needed an introduction.
