+🧿 Blini is a minimal site builder for essays and exhibits. When the application is running, users can add and edit content that is saved directly to html files in the `site` directory. The site is self-contained with no external dependencies.  The site can be opened locally in the browser or deployed to Github pages, Netlify and other services.

+in progress ...
+For the moment, to try it out, clone this repository, create a Python 3 virtualenv, pip install requirements.  You can change the site settings in [/site/site.yaml](https://github.com/apjanco/blini/blob/master/site/site.yaml).  To run the application `uvicorn main:app --reload`.  More documentation to come!
+
+## Also note there is a `dev` variable in site.yaml  When it's false, the site behaves like a published static site.  When it's true, content can be added or edited.
