I've written my own in (over the years and in order) PHP, Delphi, Ruby, Python, C#, Go, then C# again (after moving from Framework to Core) for serving my blog [1]. - It's fun - It improves with each iteration due to experience gained - It's great to have a sample project to create in any language you consider using as it's a small yet realistic way to discover how that language works and what the ecosystem provides [1] https://kcartlidge.com https://kcartlidge.com As an aside I also quite like yak-shaving - which is why for my latest C# iteration and just for the pleasure of it I've written my own Markdown parser and am working on my own templating engine (bit like Razor, ERB, or PHP).
