#Blogless
This is a personal project - a blog with no backend! It takes a public git repo full of markdown files, then parses them and sets up a blog application, completely on the client side. It's quite simple to set up: include the script in your page, set the configs, and you're ready to go. It can even be embedded in specific elements of the page, meaning you can put a Blogless blog wherever you'd like.##Stack
Blogless is built in Coffeescript, and makes use of:* Require.js
* [db.js](https://github.com/aaronpowell/db.js) for local storage of data.
* [Ember.js](https://github.com/emberjs/ember.js) for applicationy stuff.
* The Github API##FAQ
**Q**: Why would anyone use this?
**A**: This could be used in systems where you don't have access to a backend or database. Or it could simply be used on sites where a blog is needed, and you don't want to spend a lot of time setting one up.
**Q**: How good is the SEO?
**A**: Nonexistent. This is a very specific application, built more for academic purposes than anything else.
**Q**: Load times?
**A**: The blog takes a few seconds to load initially, as it brings in required scripts and such. Afterwards, it's quite snappy.
