rwar
rwar - A simple bare-bones Static Site Generator (SSG) with minimal features. An SSG allows a user to generate a complete HTML website from raw data and files, without having to write out the HTML. Rwar is a command line tool that takes .txt files as input and generates .html files as output.
Over the last 5 weeks I have been slowly adding new features to my static site generator palpatine. This week too palpatine got a new feature. However, not just that, this week I also learned more interesting features that GitHub has to offer: using tracking branches and testing via remotes. Even though I have been using GitHub for about a year now, I had no idea about tracking branches and remotes. This was very interesting but something that also took me a little while to develop the muscle memory to type out intuitively.
I worked on my partner’s static site generator, rwar, to implement this feature and she worked on my static site generator – palpatine. I was easily able to do this in rwar which is written in Python. However, I realized that this feature was much harder to implement on palpatine which is written in C++. Samina reached out multiple times seeking help for the broken Cmake configurations and for helping in integrating the nlohmann/json library.
