Issue is though, since it's my personal website I never thought anyone else would even look at the source, so it's got a bit of jank in it. Github is an opportunity for you to build your brand and career. For example, each blog post is going to be hand written HTML https://github.com/SealabJaster/PersonalWebsite/blob/master/PersonalWebsite/Views/BlogPosts/JsonSerialiser1.cshtml Though I might bother making it so I can write in markdown instead. Markdown is a good choice. I've done the hand written HTML, it's agony.

Ooh, that's quite the undertaking. I'll definitely give it some thought though, but as I said in another post, it'll have to be until after the serialiser set of posts are done. Would be an interesting thing to slowly work on over time though.

[...] This is truly beautiful. Good work, a great tutorial indeed. Can you pick up the topic of compile time from the ground up. I will also love tutorial on DasbetterC. No tutorial that i am aware in this aspect of D Thanks a million times. I am awaiting the rest part of the tutorial I'll definitely cover compile time in more depth at some point, but I don't want to put too much on myself right now, so any other topics will have to wait until after this current series is done. I'll admit I haven't messed around with DasBetterC since I haven't really had a use case for it yet. I'll mess around with it and maybe write something up, but no promises (and of course, it'll wait until after the serialiser series). Thank you for the kind words as well.

Looks like a very nice initiative! Looking forward to more! A thought - host it on github? That way people can easily contribute suggestions to it. You'd be in charge, of course, with what to do with those suggestions.
