Static one

Hello World!

Welcome to—as described by the site's name—my static site. A place for trying out general stuff used to build the web. You know, like a sandbox for frameworks, libraries, ui widgets, and things of that sort but focused on static sites. That means no creating dynamic pages.

Dynamic Sites

So what is a dynamic site? These are sites where some or all of the pages you see are built on the spot when you request it. The page doesn't exist yet, it needs to be created first. For that to happen a program is needed to put all the pieces together, a machine is needed too(the program needs to run somewhere, right?). The page is then built with the needed templates, the data, put together in that machine and then the final result (the html page) is sent to the client.

Static Sites

These simply have the final products (the files) in a directory and are served just like that to the clients. That's it.

So I'll be playing a bit with tools related to these kind of sites. They might seem more complicated and limited, but they are simpler and maybe cheaper? Anyway, that's what this site is for.. so soon I'll find out. Maybe the cons are not even there anymore with the current tools available.

I might as well create some sort of catalog of the tools as I'm trying them, so there's also that. That's about it I think. Enjoy your stay.
