This is quite neat. Every page is a <section id="pageid"> and css is

  section {display:none}
  section:target {display:block}

So they use the target selector which becomes active when #pageid is in the url. But the html for all the pages is outputted, so this won't scale with a big blog. I wonder how SEO is for this, and if there's a way to make this better with something like the <object> element.

I would also make it so the url was example.com/#/pageid, so the id is "/pageid". Looks a bit better I think.

What do you have in mind?

I was thinking in using it for a blog, but I am afraid of having everything in a single file, and that making some mistake will render the whole site useless.

Also not sure how hard would be to manage once it starts to grow... Maybe it needs to grow significantly more than I can before this is a road block.

I think that would become unwieldy very fast. I think it's alright for a lightweight site like this one with very little content.
If you don't want to use a static site generator I think you're better off with just html files for each page/blog entry, or you could use something like htmx and load stuff in that way.
