Mrklog

Mrklog (Markdown Blog) is as the name itself bespeaks, a simple blog that lets you create articles writing in markdown language. It is created using Laravel PHP Framework for the back-end and Vue.js for the front-end. Laravel creates the API and Vue.js displays the posts. The search feature is instant (that's why I do not include a button) as you write as well as the pagination pages (thanks to Vue.js)! This gives a nice and innovative feeling.

About the blog

You can CRUD posts, add tags to them and also link every media you can think of (youtube, twitter, instagram, spotify etc). Everyone can create an account using Facebook, GooglePlus or just your personal email. Finally, I created a public API that can help developers to create apps about mrklog.

But the main question is: “What differs mrklog from other blog sites?” The answer is that mrklog lets users create articles WITHOUT having account! So everyone is welcome to write anything he/she wants even without logging in into the system! Tell me what’s quicker than that?

How to CRUD without account

There is a simple but clever way to update and/or delete posts you have created without account. At the moment you create an article, the success flash message gives you back a 5 string random generated pin code. In order to make changes to this article you have to provide this exact pin code. Of course if the user want to create an account there is no need to have pin code (just log in).
