"A push on the git repo" is not something I would think trivial for a non-tech person. However, netlify also supports just drag-and-dropping a zip onto the dashboard. That's probably as easy as it gets.
- levosmetalo 7y agoBut then you need to create that zip file with the appropriate folder and file structure. I fear that would be too much to ask for then non-technical person that struggles with doing git commit.
- jakelazaroff 7y agoYou actually don't even have to zip it up. It just needs to be a folder with an index.html file in it. If Microsoft Word exports that, your non–technical person should be fine.
- aesyondu 7y agoYep, I had to explain the concept of version control system, using the old my_doc_file.docx, my_doc_file_final.docx, my_doc_file_final_final.docx, ... I just told him when to use the commands git init, remote, add, commit, and push and what the workflow looks like. As a couple of people have mentioned, there is a drag and drop feature. How did I miss this!? Anyway it would have saved a couple of minutes of explanation.
