While this isn’t related to CITPT-275-60, I need something to fill in 3 blog posts, so let’s talk about Jekyll and Harp, something I was working on for my Web Frameworks Class.
Harp… is weird… well, maybe not harp itself… maybe this is me complaining about Jade more than harp… yeah, this is me complaining about jade… Jade is weird. while I get the idea about having a cleaner HTML format, I feel like it’s a bit too much of a headache at times. Mainly spacing… my god, spacing. probably doesn’t help much that the book doesn’t have its examples in Jade, instead having them in mark-up, but that’s more my fault then the language… and I guess that also applies the Harp… but it doesn’t mean I’m not going to get hebby-jebbies using it in the future.
Jekyll is a little bit more my speed… though there are still annoyances, mainly with design… but I think those annoyances aren’t what I’m supposed to be focused on; this is web frameworks, not web everything…
So, in short, I perfer Jekyll, I guess… Also, need to figure out a way to end these smoothy… eh, I’ll figure it out eventually…
