The situation is not that simple as "Catalonians want to become an independent state": they want to be independent with some conditions. For instance they claim they should not take any part of repaying Spain's debt, but some of part comes from them. Is like if a group of friends go out for dinner and someone say "I'm not paying".

They want to keep be part of the EU, which is not that simple, open borders, same currency, use Spain's army instead of building one, football clubs to play on La Liga (this a very big deal for most Spaniards).

As someone from south Spain, I'm totally up for them to become independent if that's what they feel like. However, they shouldn't expect Spain's help at all.

The site is obviously catalan, but the bigger picture is way more complex than that.
