This project allows you to easily add a nice looking, mobile-friendly blog to your existing NextJS app without a lot of heavy dependencies or complex stuff to configure. You just set up a repo on GitHub with some markdown files with some metadata at the top, and it will automatically retrieve and convert the markdown to rich html/css blog posts that works well with SEO. I made it for my own webapp because I wanted something simple and easy and didn't want to deal with a complex library/system that does tons of stuff I don't care about.
