# Tolkien Fan Club

A static site generator that converts Markdown content into HTML pages. Built from scratch as a learning exercise for [boot.dev](https://boot.dev).

## Usage

```bash
# Build and serve locally
./main.sh

# Build with GitHub Pages basepath
./build.sh

# Run tests
./test.sh
```

Or directly:

```bash
python3 -m src <destination> <basepath>
python3 -m src "public" "/"
python3 -m src "docs" "/tolkien-fan-club/"
```
