Some work on FosseryWeb page-builders:
I did some rewrite of the tool, separate out HTML templates from the generation logic, and use Jinja to fill in the templates during generation (this introduces an additional dependency, which some might consider bloat, but since I'll probably be the only one using it, it doesn't matter that much I guess, I rather focus on cleaner code, long-term maintainability). I also created a separate function to handle the Markdown validation logic, and call it before prompting for the description, to give immediate feedback, and rewrote the error messages to be clearer, more organized.

Some FosseryWeb updates:
In the announcement post of last week's major update I asked whether the original site should have rounded, slighly rounded, or edged corners, all three options received one vote, so I decided to go with the middleground, the slightly rounded corners. I also updated the Timeline page to include last week's major update and the design change, fixed metadata on the Min site's cheatsheet pages (where the title said FosseryWeb instead of FosseryWeb Min), updated the "tools I use" section on About page.
https://fosseryweb.codeberg.page/
https://fosseryweb-min.codeberg.page/
(The site is a bit slow at the moment, seems like Codeberg servers have some performance issues, probably a bit much load due to a bunch of FOSS projects leaving GitHub, the majority of them going to Codeberg. Luckily you can run the site(s) offline too, see instructions in README: https://codeberg.org/fosseryweb/pages)

Minor update to my Joplin config:
Joplin recently got an update where F11 got mapped to toggling fullscreen by default, which conflicted with my setting of toggling the note list, so I decided to modify toggling sidebar (notebook list) to F2 and toggling note list to F3, to ensure the two keys are next to each other, and don't conflict with any default setting.
