log4brains VS prpl

There is an interesting win-win tool called log4brains, that can turn your markdown into a static website. It's also integrated into MADR template. I haven’t had time to try them yet, but it's in my backlog.

I'm a solution architect in my current job, and I love it because I still get to solve technical problems and help/mentor more junior developers but I don't really write code anymore (except on minor occasions and it's mostly by choice). The tradeoff is I have to write docs and make presentations, but I learned how to do that easily enough.

Hey thanks! Can definitely empathize with the imposter syndrome, it's a tough hurdle to clear.

For the templating system I decided to also add an option to define your own if you don't like the [] syntax (https://prpl.dev/api#options). Figured since the system is regex-based instead of AST-based there's no reason not to expose it as an option to users.

For the metadata I implemented a basic parser. Here's a link to that part of the source code, it's not the most efficient nor does it cover all the edge cases, but it's simple enough it can be easily updated (https://github.com/tyhopp/prpl/blob/master/packages/core/src...).

Good luck and hope I can see your system on HN someday too!
