I built a protein comparison site (aggregating nutrition, ingredients, electrolytes, prices) and I expected a little bit of traffic, but I'm getting less than a single visitor every 2 days from google. It's absolutely dead. A ye

The comments here all suggesting different arcane and complicated stacks of different devops solutions and certificates and configurations and services has me somewhat despairing that such a COMMON usecase is still so annoyingly obtuse.

I built a simple tool to do something similar (it's meant for a monorepo and will build each subfolder in to a (subfolder-code.txt) text file that you can upload to AIs. https://github.com/manfrin/bundle-codebases
