Turning focus back to #webdev, I need your help with any suggestions for a simple #blog solution. All I need is #a11y friendly form management, archives, and comments. Open source, minimal JS. I dream old school: Elegant #Perl, My own #HTML and #CSS. AKA: The real Web. Any ideas?

uhhh - SFTP, flat files, Gopher-style...BBEdit, Transmit, and some space in a cloud... JS? why? forms? why? post or interaction? or - nginx, vi/emacs, and a usable file-system structure...

And oh, the joy of seeing vi and emacs in the same sentence in 2020 is epic! I prefer vi but damn, emacs gets big respect - especially SPEAK from T.V. Raman (HAIL!). File systems are not a problem for me but comment management and archival scales up beyond my energy to manage.

An odd choice perhaps, but my favorite GUI code editor is Microsoft's Open Source Visual Studio Code. Or just any plain text editor is fine.

I should not have used GUI. I should simply have said code editor. I just failed semantics ;-)

I detest vi - the only program I had to quit by turning off the computer...

Hahaha, ah the vi v. emacs debate rears up! I used vi first is all. I respect them both. What a statement though! I am well familiar with BBEdit and it's just another this v. that landing on a personal preference. Can't stand email so I'm reluctant to scrape forms. Alternative?
