github.com/elves/elvish@v0.15.0/website/blog/live.md (about)

     1  After being "in construction" for ages, the Elvish website is now officially
     2  live. It is (still) not complete yet, but in the spirit of "release early", here
     3  it is :)
     4  
     5  This website will be the entry point of all Elvish information. It will host
     6  documents (including both [learning materials](../learn/) and
     7  [references](../ref/)), as well as release notes or other announcements. The
     8  [GitHub repository](https://github.com/elves/elvish) continues to host code and
     9  issues, of course.
    10  
    11  The website has no comment facilities: commenting is outsourced to
    12  [Hacker News](https://news.ycombinator.com) and
    13  [r/elv](https://www.reddit.com/r/elv/).
    14  
    15  The [homepage](../) introduces each section, and highlights some key features of
    16  Elvish with "ttyshots". Please start there to explore this website!

    20  The website is built with a
    21  [static website generator](https://github.com/xiaq/genblog) from a bunch of
    22  [MarkDown, configuration files and messy scripts](https://github.com/elves/elvish.io),
    23  and hosted on a [DigitalOcean](https://www.digitalocean.com) server with
    24  [nginx](http://nginx.org).
    25  
    26  Thanks to [Cloudflare](https://www.cloudflare.com), this website has a good
    27  chance of withstanding kisses of death from Hacker News, should there be any. It
    28  uses Cloudflare's "strict" SSL configuration, meaning that both traffic from you
    29  to Cloudflare and Cloudflare to the origin server are fully encrypted with
    30  verified certificates. The origin server obtains and renews its certificate from
    31  the wonderful [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) service.
