i know, three posts in a day is pretty wacky BUT

would it make sense for my blog project to have a ratelimit of 3 new blog posts per 5 minutes, 250 views per hour (it doesn’t make a db query for everytime someone reloads the page, the posts are cached and the list is refreshed everytime a new post is made so the db doesn’t feel stressed), and a 50 requests per minute for the api (the api makes a new db query for each request)

i might upload a new youtube video about it sometime soon but i’m grounded so y’all will have to wait a few weeks lol…

some interesting features about the blog:

• 100% flask, python, pymongo

• FIRST time i’ve used fetchapi (to make an admin panel)

• probably my biggest project that functions properly

• my first time using tailwind css

• my first time making json configuration files (you can customize fonts, theme color, admin accounts, etc.)

• first version on github was made in 4 hours (didn’t have much, no admin panel or CSS)

• latest version made in about 12 hours of work (2 seperate days of work)
