| How to Setup A Fast, Simple, and Free Blog Like This | true |
TL;DR: Makefiles are awesome and use Netlify. The code for this entire site
is available here. I publish at-will using their CLI via netlify deploy --prod. It's simple and awesome.
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 or 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.
And it's awesome.
And you can easily build on top of it, extending it to do anything you could ever possibly want! Need a Content Management System (CMS)? Done. Need to deploy a complicated Single-Page Application (SPA)? Easy.
I'll show you how I put this together using tools already on your computer and how you can extend my system to use whatever tools you prefer on top of my basic ones.
Let's get started!
