Hi everyone!

For the past few weeks I've been fired up about the idea of making my own blogging platform!

Originally I found out about a Telegram API update that lets you make absurdly rich text posts. There's just endless room for imagination here!

Unfortunately, for some reason this functionality is available ONLY to bots.

"Well, okay," I thought, and went off to study the API. Before this I knew absolutely nothing about how Telegram and bots work.

In the end I made a small local service on .NET, tested it, and everything works. Hooray!

Now I can do all sorts of stuff like this:

big text

tiiiiiiiny text

• There

• Are even

• Lists

1. There

   1. Are even

      1. NUMBERED

         1. Lists (with the ability to control indentation)

But more than that, there's the option to

• Add checkboxes!

• Not add checkboxes :(

I forbid you to shit (c) Jason Statham

#include <iostream.h>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    cout << "Hello World" << endl;
    return 0;
}

I can post MEMES right in the middle of the text!!!!!!!!!

And I can post a VIDEO!!!!!!

Moreover, there's the ability to add a carousel. WHY doesn't Telegram let users create them?

There's LaTeX support

And if you go to https://blog.mooexe.dev/hello-world

You can even like/dislike and comment on pieces of the post!

In short, I vibe-coded created my own SaaS.

The core is a .NET Core server. I've never written a server before, and here I finally got around to it!

The frontend is on Angular. Man, I hadn't used it for 4 years, and it has changed so much.

But the coolest thing is that all of this spins and whirls on this little thing :3

In short, I'm happy as a clam, just incredible!

Here are a couple more screenshots of what it looks like from the inside.

What's more...

P.S. All of this is still in test mode, but in general I plan to make this SaaS open and MAYBE even monetize it somehow.

P.S.S. Speaking of monetization, I would be VERY-VERY-VERY grateful for any financial help. Here's the link: https://ko-fi.com/martycow
