Raison D'être

If you've ever had the misfortune of having to export content from a Wix website, you might appreciate why this script exists. Simply put, Wix does not make it easy for people to move their site content to other platforms.

While working on a project for a client, I was tasked with porting blog posts and other content to a static site running on Jekyll. This helped me grabbed the blog posts via the RSS feed and convert them to flat Markdown files.

TODO
