From the article, "WRITING HTML AND CSS IN C ISN'T TOO BAD".

Um, any and all string handling in C is pretty miserable.

To be fair, the HTML and CSS in C wasn't too bad.. the Youtube scraper was also written in C and that was a lot more painful :)

Emitting strings is fine, it's the parsing that sucks.

If you do it with the string functions from the standard library then yes, it is.
