+
+## Tech
+
+The """"tech-stack"""" for this site is [pandoc](https://pandoc.org/) and a single shell script.
+Ok, technically there's also the issue about python but really you don't need to use it since the site pages build anyways.
+
+Yea so here's the shell(bash) script.
+I'm going to remove any bashisms soon enough but am very lazy so this is the best I got for ya.
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+rootDir='./site/'
+targetDir='post/'
+
+post() {
+	echo Building: $1
+	tmp=".swap"
+	full=".fullswap"
+	base=`basename $1`
+	# First build the content of the site
+	pandoc $1 > $tmp
+	# Title, images and tables get added/fixed here
+	sed "s/{TITLE}/<title>${base%.*}<\/title>/g" ./templates/post-header.html > $full
+	cat $tmp ./templates/post-footer.html >> $full
+	sed -i 's/<img/<img class="pure-img"/g;s/<table>/<table class="pure-table">/g' $full
+
+	# Move things to proper directory and cleanup
+	mv $full "$rootDir/$targetDir/${base%.*}.html"
+	rm -f $tmp
+}
+
+build_all() {
+	mkdir -p $rootDir/post/ $rootDir/fonts/ $rootDir/img/
+
+	cp style.css "$rootDir"
+	cp prebuild/post/style.css "$rootDir/post/"
+
+	cp fonts/* $rootDir/fonts/
+
+	cp img/ $rootDir/img/ -r
+	mv $rootDir/img/favicon.png $rootDir/
+
+	# Try to get xargs to deal with this ugliness
+	for r in prebuild/*md;do
+		post $r
+	done
+	for p in prebuild/post/*md;do
+		post $p
+	done
+}
+
+_help() {
+	echo 'Options: 
+	-h show this prompt
+	-p [postDirectory/*] (takes a list of paths to build from)
+	-r build root pages 
+	-s copy stylesheets
+	-l run live server'
+}
+server() {
+	cd $rootDir
+	echo 'Address: 0.0.0.0:8080'
+	python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080
+}
+
+if [ -z $1 ]
+then
+	_help
+	exit 0
+fi
+
+while getopts ":aslrhp:" opt;do
+	case "$opt" in
+		a)
+			build_all;;
+		s)
+			cp style.css "$rootDir"
+			cp prebuild/post/style.css "$rootDir/$targetDir"
