This is (incomplete!) list of few cool websites I found while surfing
through the web.
Note, 09.11.2023: After using zettlr for so long, I accidentally found a
way to export .md files as standalone html, so this is the main reason

Update, 16.06.2024: i finally had mental capacity to rewrite this shit
to make it unified with rest of the blog
