+title: Writing a static site generator for fun and profit
+date:  24/3/26 
+---
+
+Tired of bloated Next.js projects taking up 100MBs of RAM on my VPS, I decided
+to shift my personal site to a more minimal framework. Remembering [Luke
+Smith](https://www.youtube.com/@LukeSmithxyz)'s old video about Hugo, I decided
+to give it a try. I was thinking of writing my own Hugo Theme when I had the
+"bright" idea of writing my very own static site generator instead.
+
+> Enter **Kite**
+
+## How an SSG works
+A static site generator takes in a directory full of markdown files and
+converts them plain-old HTML files while maintaining a theme. For my use-case,
+since I mainly wanted a blog, the most important page would be the **post**
+page.
+
+The Page struct can therefore be defined as:
+
+```go
+type Page struct {
+	Title   string
+	Content template.HTML
+	TOC     []TOCItem
+}
+```
+
+## Parsing Frontmatter
+Frontmatter is the small YAML-like block at the top of each markdown file
+containing info such as the post title, it's date, tags etc. 
+
+```go
+type Frontmatter struct {
+	Title string   `yaml:"title"`
+	Date  string   `yaml:"date"`
+	Tags  []string `yaml:"tags"`
+}
+```
