So, LightNovels.today took several weeks of work on evenings and weekends to pull off, probably 2/3 of which was getting the data and 1/3 of which was building the site. I had to do some creative coding to get the data into a proper format, but I think I did good enough for a starting point.

This blog will talk about the site’s development, highlight new features, and talk about longer-range plans. You might think everything went exactly as planned, but that’s nowhere near the case. I completely rewrote one site’s downloader and the site itself changed the framework early on in the process.

How close to the wire was I adding features to the website? It was really hot.
