This is how static-site blogging generally works. You have a directory of text files and images on your laptop, you push a button, and BAM your website is updated.
Compare to Wordpress, where I log into my remote site and edit posts. If I want to get those posts onto my laptop, I have to take special action, repeatedly—even though I *composed* the posts while sitting at my laptop! Bonkers.
(Let's make social media work more like that first case, 'k?)
