Introduction to static site generator #1143

Closed Aju100 closed 3 years ago

Aju100 commented 3 years ago

Brief Summary:

A static site generator is a tool that generates a full static HTML website based on raw data and a set of templates. Essentially, a static site generator automates the task of coding individual HTML pages and gets those pages ready to serve to users ahead of time. Because these HTML pages are pre-built, they can load very quickly in users' browsers.

good topic @Aju100 - approved. Please note that Section offers static site edge hosting technology through our Node.js module. I'm not sure if you're looking to go that deep (i.e. deployment) into your tutorial, but if so, please be mindful that we prefer not to feature competitive providers in our content (e.g. Netlify, Heroku, etc.) Feel free to double check if in doubt as you're working through the content. Also, if you're interested in testing out the Section offering to feature in your article, we'd be happy to set you up with an account.

Hi @ninjaginja, I would be happy for testing and deploying the static site in the section through Node.js Module

Excellent! When you're ready, you can sign up for a trial account here - https://aperture.section.io/new/onboarding/slipway. Once you sign up, it will direct you through the docs for how to deploy your app. Feel free to reach out with any questions along the way.
