" summary

A live demo shows REPL-driven interactive programming that parses messy Blogger HTML and produces Hugo markdown with correct front matter, using Clojure + Emacs and libraries like slurp and hickory plus an HTML→Markdown converter. The workflow builds small extractors for title, date, body and tags, composes them, and runs them over batches (tested on 10 posts, frequencies inspected visually). The complete script is built and runs, the full job takes about 15 minutes, converting Blogger to Hugo with zero breakage on old deps.
