NicoCourts.com Backend API Server

This is a mini server written in Go that handles requests from the frontend as well as provding a central repository for the blog posts.

Plans

I would like this to provide a JSON interface to be read by the front end and to provide an API for creating new posts and reading/updating old ones that uses cryptographic signatures to provide authentication for sensitive routes (e.g. updating and deleting)

My original plan was to use pandoc or something similar on the server side to handle document conversion, but that has ended up being largely irrelevant since I want to do the conversion from markdown to LaTeX-enriched HTML on the client side anyways to enable previews.

Documentation

• At the moment this will hold some dummy data while the rest of
• the server is developed.
