Re: Hand code a blog?

[Bokehman]

Ok. Sounds like WP is the way to go.

I’ll look at Chris’s link here:
https://css-tricks.com/designing-for-wordpress-complete-series-downloads/

As I’ve been coding in Espresso and CSSEdit, will I still be able to build things in a way I’m familiar with? I will be designing a completely custom site, and not using any of the WP themes.

Oh, one more question: I’ve been seeing references to PHP blog scripts. Would this basically be the back-end to what WP does?

Thanks for the comments.
