There was a phase in my hobby development where all I wanted to make were blogs. This was one of them.
The blog has an installation step, whereafter users may post their posts with tags and choose to receive comments.

Features:

• User authentication
• Commenting
• Draft Posts
• Tagging
• Custom Pages

The bottom of the page has the admin links and the link for an archive.

The blog comes with an option to add custom pages, intended to use as a profile page or a portfolio.
Users are able to choose wether to have the page show up on the sidebar navigation, and what order the links should be in.

This was from a time where there was a variety of choice in CSS libraries, parallel to grid styling becoming more popular.
This blog used the "Drunken Parrot" UI Kit.
Nowadays, CSS libraries are a lot more standardized and sterile, like with Bootstrap or Tailwind.
