Show HN: Simple Text Blog

I know, I know. He's probably unemployed at the moment or just brushing off before the next interview.

But the problem is that this is symptomatic for the JS community.

It's silly when someone needs Next for a blogging platform he'll be posting three times a year, but the same thing is happening in the office, everyday.

6 comments already complaining that this isn't "simple".

I suggest we instead treat this post as if the title was "Show HN: a simple text blog demonstrating how to use Cloudflare workers and KV store" - that way we get to have a more interesting conversation.

How is that simple?

Simple would be if you would just write text files, drop it somewhere simple, either a webserver or GitHub pages or some hosted service, and be done with it.

I have been working on something similar this morning. I want to create a simple blog to document my thoughts without having to deal much about technical stuff and maintenance and spend a few hours diving the rabbit hole of jekyll blogs.

While their documentation(https://jekyllrb.com/docs/) is one of the best resources to learn, I have found my job much more straightforward using one of the pre-built themes that is available on the internet. With deployment to github pages almost instantaneous, I can see myself updating the blog much more often.

The blog which I am currently working on: https://jagadeeshposni.github.io The theme I have used: minimal mistakes

What's simpler about this than just uploading .html files?

This seems actually very complicated for what it does.

This is anything but simple.
