(Android) GitJournal compatibility with Carbon

[clach04]

1. Are you an Android user?
2. Have you seen https://github.com/GitJournal/GitJournal
3. Do they work well with each other?

Yep I use an android phone. It seems GitJournal uses yaml header (which is relatively common in SSG I think), so if you'd like to use it and carbon together, I need to add the feature to parse the header and display it. I'm not sure how many people actually want it, though.

EDIT: In addition, the structure where you store the data may matter. Assume you have the following structure:

data/
├─ test1.md
├─ test2.md
├─ test3.md
├─ child/
│  ├─ child1

Then you can probably access .data/child/chidl1 in GItJournal, but you can't in carbon, at least at the moment because it only handles single flat directory, not allowing users to use child directory inside ./data/*. This can be solved by changing the way carbon reads the data directory, though.

I've been playing with GitJournal for a little, I actually have disabled the front matter (yaml) support in GitJournal on my phone and it seems to work well (some minor issues), I need to make some time to play with Carbon then :-) This could be a nice solution for desktop.
