reading of Config code is a bit unintuitive

[epogrebnyak]

from lamya.config import Config as DefaultConfig
from lamya.site_generator import SiteGenerator

class Config(DefaultConfig):
    name = "dontpanic"
    url = "https://dont.panic"
    subtitle="we demand rigidly defined areas of doubt and uncertainty",
    content_directory="content",
    theme_options = {
        "sidebar": True,
        "sidebar_image": "/img/sidebar.png"
    }

site_gen = SiteGenerator.run_from_config(Config(), render=False)```

Maybe consider less inheriting:

DEFAULT_CONFIG = Config(
    name = "dontpanic"
    url = "https://dont.panic"
    subtitle="we demand rigidly defined areas of doubt and uncertainty",
    content_directory="content",
    theme_options = {
        "sidebar": True,
        "sidebar_image": "/img/sidebar.png"
    }

site_gen = SiteGenerator.run_from_config(DEFAULT_CONFIG, render=False)

Having looked at https://github.com/vshotarov/lamya/blob/master/lamya/config.py it seems inherting is really a design decision in lamya. However, to me it looks like making Config simply a dataclass is a much clear path.

Oh, thanks a lot for bringing this up, I haven't seen the dataclasses before, but they look great! They remind me a lot of Haskell's data structures, which I really like and they seem very appropriate for a config class.

I've had a quick go at converting the Config class to use them, is this - 35a65fb - what you had in mind?

One thing I really don't like about dataclasses, though, is that they require type hints, which I am not a fan of. If I am to merge this in I am considering using one of the cheats in Dataclasses without type annotations.
