It's a good idea that I formalize how I generate my links as if I ever do switch how I create this blog, I'll need to make sure all my links still work.
All my html files exist under /devlog/.
Da Rules:
1. Read in a markdown file
2. Split by new lines
3. The first line contains the title
4. Remove the first 2 characters, hashtag and space, from the title
5. Convert the title to lower case
6. Replace all spaces with a dash, `-`
7. Append .html to the title
An example:
Set Up Search for the Blog
Uxn - Learning Tools
Will become:
set-up-search-for-the-blog.html
uxn---learning-tools.html
