It saves almost any complex webpage as a nice self-contained .html file. Perfect for safe-keeping.

I'm trying to collect buttons from a bunch of different cohost users to add to a huge button wall on my Neocities page. I figured if I was already collecting the buttons, I may as well make them public, so other folks could add them too.
I made a little google form (I know, I'm sorry) to allow folks to submit their buttons (I'm specifically looking for the 88 pixel wide by 31 pixels tall buttons.) and I was planning on having each button send to the respective owner's Neocities (or similar) page.

If you'd like in
Submission form is here
The resulting collection is here

I'm still tinkering with the one I'm making for myself so it's currently empty but I plan on submitting mine when I figure out how I want it to look. Thanks folks!

hi everyone,
i've made you a free website you can mess around with and customize and upload and share. here's the link.

this is sort of a fork of the john doe template from my last post, stripped down to make it easier to take apart and understand (plus the code is annotated to make it a little easier to see what does what). if you've never made a website check it out and maybe give it a shot. it's free.

EDIT: pushed a small update to make this look better on phones

Phantomake is a static site generator that I've been working on for the past few weeks. It's a single binary with no dependencies that you can use to generate your website. It lets you apply templates to your HTML pages, reduce copy-pasting by reusing common snippets of code, convert markdown files to HTML, and more. You can use Phantomake on an existing static website without any extra setup and only generate the pages you need.

Phantomake is useful for almost any static site, but specifically made for indie web / small web sites that are already hand-writing HTML and want straightforward improvements like includes or pagination.

Because Phantomake is built with Bun, it is only available on MacOS and Linux for now—Windows will be supported as soon as Bun makes an official Windows release. Bun landed Windows support a while ago and Phantomake is now available as an EXE for running on the command line!

It's open source and available on Github. Bug reports or fixes are welcome!

Feedback wanted!

Phantomake is pretty fresh and I'm using it for my own site and the tool's documentation, but I would love any feedback on how good or bad it works for you! Feature requests are welcome, just keep in mind that the tool is intentionally simple and requests may not be entertained depending on their complexity.

But please, if you're interested, try it out and let me know if it helps you!

Reminder if you're getting back into making your own website that I wrote a static site generator with the best logo and you should use it and ask me about it

EDIT: lmao adding windows support took 5 mins and I did it from a Macbook, enjoy
