**TL;DR**: Makefiles are awesome and use Netlify. The code for this entire site

**TL;DR**: Netlify is incredible for hosting static websites. The code for this
entire site is available [here][repo]. I publish at-will using their CLI via

# Introduction
This website *intentionally* may not look like much. It is simple both in
style, colors, and layout. It is blazing fast. It looks the same on any mobile
device. It uses the simple web technologies you already know. You can use any
static site generator such as [Hugo][hugo] or [Gatsby][gatsby]. *And I don't
pay for any of it to work!* I do pay for the domain [`lyte.dev`](/), though,
but you don't need one.

domain [`lyte.dev`](/), though, but you can get certain domains for completely
free.
And it's awesome.

ever possibly want! Need a Content Management System (CMS)?
