you want him to be responsible for hosting parts of your site on his server?
how does it make any sense for him or for you?
- vntok 7y agoIt is in fact a common business model, known as a CDN (Content Delivery Network). A quick Google search will return many examples. Most popular libraries (Bootstrap) or fonts are hosted on at least one CDN.
- bigzyg33k 7y agoBusiness being the key term here - this kid is 13, and from what I can tell, doesn't make any money from this. How would it make sense for him to pay to have this available via CDN?
- Myrth 7y agohe already provides link to cdn. it seems that the parent didn't like that it was too long.
- slim 7y agoit could be a http redirect to the cdn
- Myrth 7y agoso he will be responsible to maintain the domain name and server for perpetuity, just for short link
- pradn 7y agoThe author already provides a CDN url. If they are so inclined, creating a memorable url (perhaps even a shortlink) would help with styling quick and dirty projects. I don't think people are doing to be running massive websites using this library.
