This is a simple static blog generator, but as with all of the previous exercises you're goal is to push it as far as you can trying as many techniques as you can. + +Since you've gone through the HTML and CSS portions of the course you should be able to create a decent starter CSS, but I highly suggest you just create a quick one using [blockstart.css](https://learnjsthehardway.com/blockstart/) or even grab a premade "classless CSS" to get started. You can also use the one from the course at [zedshaw.games](https://zedshaw.games/global.css) which will get you started as well, and is also a classless CSS. + +The key point of the last paragraph is to _not_ become obsesses with the CSS at first, but instead to get your .md file processing working right, then make your static blog look nice.
