| Well, of course. What the hell do you need JavaScript for?!?!

| This is a static site generator running inside a web

| maintain a server and yet you can't make use of the server to
| do interesting thing.

| If you want a blog, have a blog. If you want to write for
| yourself, use Apple Notes or Obsidian or Word.
