This is a blog post manager to help you post, delete, upload and edit your posts on Github Pages using a simple-ish website. This is intended for lazy people like us who want a cool blog but have no time or energy to code one themselves.

1. Install Python 3 and pip

2. From the BlogPostManager folder, install Python dependencies

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

1. From the BlogPostManager folder, run the following:

flask --app blog-post-manager/app.py run --host=127.0.0.1

If you can't use the standalone flask command, run the following instead:

python3 -m flask --app blog-post-manager/app.py run --host=127.0.0.1

2. Open the url:port that was opened up by Flask (it's usually 127.0.0.1:5000)

• To make a new blog post, type a new name for that blogpost in the textbar, "Post title" and click "Create new blog post"

• After creating your blog post, click on the post name, which will bring you to the editor.

• In the 'Blog name' textfield, you can name your blog (NOT the blog posts, but the name for the blog which will have your blogs posts)
