I can only applaud the desire to give more people the power to just-do-it, but unfortunately the instructions are way beyond accessible. Unfortunately there's no easy tool to do it completely (buy a domain name, get some machine that can reply to HTTP, be able to send files there, and edit those files) in the "traditional" web. Yet another reason I believe decentralized web, where the browser can also be the editor and the distributor, will be the future.

I am wondering why it's a bad thing to use 20 years old' style :)
- babbledabbler 6y agoThank you and totally agree. I'm aiming to package up a GUI interface that would wrap these commands for this very purpose. Domain registration and site hosting (outside of git pages) automation are things I've also thought about. For now it's a WIP. Stay tuned.
- rakoo 6y agoThank you for doing this. We need more tools to make the web really accessible to everyone. Please post more about what you're going to release !
- babbledabbler 6y agoWill do!
