ssg's Issues

Implement deployment feature

Add unit tests for config

Add generator meta tag

Logically split up main file

To also make the software more testable.

Enhance config

Add descriptive README file

Implement assets and other files handling

Implement "uses-this" feature

• Store software I use in a special YAML file uses-this.yaml
• Using that file as input generate a HTML page listing the software I use
• For each entry in the YAML input:
  • Generate a HTML description list dl, where:
  • The description term dt is the name of the software category (e.g. Operating System, Text editor, Web browser)
  • The description details dd is a list of links a of the software that I use, where:
    • The link text is the name of the software
    • The link href attribute is the link to the software's official website

Example YAML input

- title: Core
  categories:
  - title: Operating system
    software:
    -  name: Manjaro
       link: https://manjaro.org/
    -  name: Android
       link: https://www.android.com/
  - title: Init system
    software:
    -  name: systemd
       link: https://systemd.io/
    -  name: runit
       link: https://smarden.org/runit/

Example HTML output
