I completely disagree. No one is ever going to write out a url by hand on notebook paper. Even in the rare case that a url would fit on a single line, it's just needlessly cumbersome work to do. I think the project author did a great job allowing for further site customization (styles, images, etc.) without overcomplicating the hand-written portion.

I don't mean writing out a URL...

You could name pages like "Home", "About", "My trip to Paris". And then write on the piece of paper "[link to My trip to Paris]"

Or you could write "[link from Posts]" to add it to a common listing.

You'd basically just create a written form of Markdown.

Oh I misread. That type of linking definitely feels doable. Images & styles are a whole other can of worms though
