Rein in your web properties under a single command line interface. Streamline hosting, website deployments, and certificate management.
Your live website is described in its most essential form with a definition file, page.yml. By specifying your host, registrar, and the location of your website files -- you can go from buying a domain to a live website in 2 commands.
Run page new -- this creates your websites definition. Then page up -- this deploys your website.
Content-based change detection aka hash-based file tracking ensures only changed files are ever transferred to your host saving time and bandwidth. Just run page up again to redeploy your changes.
Certificates are provided through LetsEncrypt a free, automated, and open certificate authority brought to us by the nonprofit Internet Security Research Group (ISRG).
Certificate generation is handled by validating domain ownership through your DNS provider using DNS challenges and the Automated Certificate Management Environment (ACME).
The page up command automatically renews your certificate once its within renewal period (30 days before expiry).
Use your preferred host and registrar. With a growing list of supported hosts and registrars, you can manage your websites regardless of your domain provider or preferred host.
Manage a static website made of a single index.html file, a collection of files from a static site generator, or a single page application.
With Multi-Site Management built-in, you can manage multiple static websites from one interface. Each of your websites can live on seperate hosts or a single host so there is less worry about vendor lock-in or runaway costs as you scale the number of websites you manage.
Builder is now included with Page tool. Generative AI is capable of incrementally writing a website through text instruction.
To get started with builder run page build. Experiment with input prompts like:
By incrementally instructing the large language model on how you want your website to look or behave, you can build simple and interactive webpages. Your website is output as a collection of files - index.html, styles.css, and script.js.
Take these files and deploy them or open them up to refine further.
