This is simple yet useful, thank you! I've been migrating my personal website towards an event-driven serverless architecture today and considered deploying a blogging system where I could quickly author and store my blogs in Markdown and have them converted to HTML on the fly whenever a request is made to the corresponding URL, except that plain HTML looks way too bland and unprofessional even for a personal blog. Utilizing Bootstrap CSS for styling the blog was exactly the missing piece I was looking for ❤️
