Well, I haven't thought about the approach I want to take here. I've got a lot of things in mind. The following are just notes; not rules or something that should be followed.

• Using Vim in your browser? That brings the settings issue. I believe the user should have their Vim settings available. That's the whole point haha.
• Using a remote server for the DB. https://sqlite.org/useovernet.html
• Enabling a "shell" that has access to a sqlite client in a (another) container. Maybe I'm tripping.
• The thing I'm trying to avoid: a web editor.
• A bash script that sends the article through an HTTP request and then make the CRUD with Rust. (I like this the most)

I started this project while learning Actix (with the little knowledge of Rust). Hence, I couldn't make it to the testing section.

It's time, before the codebase get's bigger and add new features per se (new code)

We need to test the script actually works as intended, so in the future we follow TDD with bash as well.

Use folders for customisation of profile picture, Bio, blog name, etc.

For example:

Having these files we can then use them in templates/index.html (where most of the custom stuff will happen), templates/base.html (for meta stuff)

|_templates/
  |_index.html
  |_customisation/
    |_pic.jpeg
    |_bio.html
    |_logo.html
    |_default_title.html

At the moment we're using numerical IDs. In order to become a more reachable site we must use slugs for articles URLs.

There are a couple of crates that can be used (our own method would work as well):

• https://docs.rs/slug/latest/slug/
• https://docs.rs/slugify/latest/slugify/

Until now the HTML is sent directly to the client, formatting strings, and doing some tricks to get the job done. Let's try to move to a template engine or something similar.

Since the blog already is already usable (not production ready yet tho) I believe we should include meta tags so search indexers can find the blog and that stuff. Articles would need specific tags as well.

Something like:

   <!-- Primary Meta Tags -->
