It's quite annoying to have to enable JS for 3 different domains just to see something other than a blank page. It also prevents non-JS browsers and retrievers from seeing content.

If you were to use e.g. org-mode for the source document, you could easily export to HTML automatically when the file is saved.

You could also easily use a git hook to run e.g. pandoc to convert md to HTML automatically.

There are many ways of automatically exporting HTML when you save the md source file. Please use one.

Will look into it, thanks for info.
Thanks for being open to the idea (unlike the downvoters). HN is so tiresome.
I would also encourage the author and others to export static documents to HTML. As a user, I really appreciate it.
