README

Goal of this program is to make creating blog really simple, mainly for individuals who used to Reddit and Discord markdown.

Turn something like this

```h1
more stuff
**bolded stuff**
```

into

<h1>more stuff</h1>
<strong>bolded stuff</strong>

Old Program

Old Program was created with JS and has multiple libraries that are depreciated. The code is also clunky and spaghetti like. Important files are:

• article.js
• article example

New Program

So far I have ported the markup engine I created and I need it be rendered by jinja2. The data is correct and needs to be read by jinja. Articles are basically the same, date and title have been changed a bit but the markup is the same.

Why?

I decided to use Jinja2 and Flask because it is dynamic and can be used with mySQL and Heroku. The static page was using depreciated libraries.

• article.py
• Jinja2
• Flask

Evaluating Element Markup not Working

When passing element data font markup is not being evaluated...

Blog.articles
('elem', 'h1', 'A <strong>backpacking</strong> blog ')

A <strong>backpacking</strong> blog

{% for item in article['content'] %}
	{% if item[0] == 'elem' %}
		<{{item[1]}}>{{item[2]}}</{{item[1]}}>
	{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
