## What it is
Bashblog is a single ~1k-line Bash script that generates a complete static blog from plain text or Markdown posts. It requires no installation or dependencies beyond standard Unix utilities and works on GNU/Linux, macOS, and BSD.

## Use cases
- create a simple blog with just a bash script
- generate a static blog on a shared server with shell access
- post blog entries from the command line
- blog without installing any dependencies
- generate RSS feeds and static HTML pages for a personal blog

## When to choose
- you want an ultra-simple, zero-dependency blogging tool
- you have shell access to a server with a public web folder
- you prefer writing posts in Markdown or HTML from your terminal
- you want fully static output with automatic RSS generation

## When to avoid
- you need dynamic features like server-side comments or a database
- you want a modern static site generator with themes and a plugin ecosystem
- you are on Windows without a Unix-like environment
- you need multi-user or CMS-style blog management
