Free domain name #11

Closed artitudinale1 closed 8 years ago

artitudinale1 commented 8 years ago

We will need to think about a domain name were show the project possibly a free one with a good name.

@silverwedding find this good resource to check for a free domain http://www.freenom.com/en/index.html?lang=en

I'd suggest for freecodecamplondon.cf or freelononercampers.cf ? Open to any suggestion / idea.....

If we are going to use https://pages.github.com/ We could have a domain like http://username.github.io included. I think it would be enough even without thinking a custom domain name.

Once we are on a stage we can go live - I ll move this repo to https://github.com/FreeCodeCampLondon So we could have : FreeCodeCampLondon.github.io - which sounds good to me.

Then we can clone repo and keep working to switch backend from Firebase to use Nodejs and stuff. What you think?

Sounds good to me! Do you think I should shorten our org name from FreeCodeCampLondon to FCCLondon or FCCLDN or even LondonCampers or something to save typing? We can still get a free domain name and use a CNAME file with gh-pages. If the intention is to go full-stack at some point we will have to move from gh-pages because it has no 'backend' per se: it just serves static assets. I think the only free option for this is Heroku, but we can work on that when we get there :)

Yeah absolutely we can see in the future. For the moment github and Firebase would be just fine. To me FreeCodeCampLondon is ok , true a little bit of typing but it's clear and official. I'm open to any other idea or option eventually.
