[question] Should we use GitHub Pages for segs.nemerle.eu? #6

Should we use GitHub Pages for segs.nemerle.eu?

GitHub offers a simple solution for frontend web presence through their Pages toolset

They offer some prebuilt themes and the source is stored in a GitHub repository, which allows for community contribution (likely the greatest benefit)

I believe the community contribution aspect would be of great benefit considering Stitchified (recent Discord member) has mentioned that he possesses decent Web programming skills. However, he is not certain how to contribute to the project.

We did have a gh-pages branch at one point if memory serves, but it was more an experiment and contained Doxygen documentation for the SEGS source. It should not be terribly difficult to reinstate. @nemerle just needs to recreate the necessary CNAME record in DNS and others can take it from there.

I'd be happy to contribute more graphics as needed..

Nemerle mentioned in chat that the site is currently running on Grav CRM (https://getgrav.org/)

Grav includes git support, and is super simple, so we may be able to build off of that, and still benefit from community contribution and git versioning.

I'll allow Nemerle to comment further, as I'm sure it'll still require some setup on his end.

While I like github pages, the Grav seems like a really nice/light piece of crm. I see no problems with allowing administrative access to it :smile:
