Show HN: Learning Rust by writing a Markdown to HTML compiler

https://andreadimatteo.com/md-to-html-compiler.html
5•deotman•43m ago
Hi HN,

I'm new to Rust and, after half of `The Rust Programming Language` I decided to delve into a project I would actually use: a markdown to html compiler that actually serves my micro-blog (I started just right after publishing the project hehe). The project is intentionally small and one-file contained: I wanted to have the full picture in mind.

I'm open to comments, suggestions and PRs. If you asked me more convincing arguments to "why did you do it?" rather than "to learn Rust" I would respond with: LLMs are effectively a new type of web users today and will be more and more present in the future. Having a full, well formatted, .md interface of a website can make it easier for them to access the content.
