fix(template): correct URL formatting in home.html
Removed an unnecessary 'https://' prefix in the small URL example
to ensure proper URL rendering in the home page. This change
fixes an issue where the URL template would display incorrectly,
potentially causing confusion for users.

Small

Small is an alternative frontend for Medium articles, built with Flask. It allows users to read Medium articles without the clutter and distractions of the original Medium interface.

Features

  • Clean, minimalist interface for reading Medium articles
  • Fetches article content directly from Medium's GraphQL API
  • Parses and displays article content, including text and basic formatting
  • Responsive design for comfortable reading on various devices

Installation

    git clone https://git.private.coffee/PrivateCoffee/small.git

  2. Create a virtual environment and activate it:

    python -m venv venv
    source venv/bin/activate
    
  3. Install the package:

Usage
