Reading the Webmaster HS article reminded me that I'd wanted to move this discussion over here, so here it is:

I still say we use https://elm-pages.com/ coupled with https://pages.github.com/. elm-pages gives us an opinionated, statically typed API for easily auto-generating elm code that makes static websites while allowing for JS 'ports' to let us keep our current work. GitHub Pages lets us use an integrated CI/CD pipeline to deploy a 24/7 website with less hassle than repl.it.

It's built on Node.js, but if we use https://github.com/features/codespaces, then we get Git and Node.js in vscode for 180¹ hours a month.

Thoughts?

Oh, and if we need a server, and don't need static pages, that's an option, with lamdera.com. Should we want to make the HTML ourselves, that too is an option with elm-spa.dev / elm.land

My thoughts: I barely understand any of the gibberish you're saying... Though you probably want Shaurya to reply since I'm not doing any of the coding

I was talking to Shaurya, seeing as you said to talk with him. Oh, but both of you should accept the github invitation I sent.

If you want to look at the HTML and CSS libraries' APIs:

CSS, base HTML: https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/rtfeldman/elm-css/18.0.0/
Accessible Variant of HTML: https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/tesk9/accessible-html-with-css/latest/

Footnotes

1. With the student developer pack, a free-for-students collection of otherwise paid tools including GitHub pro. Without pro, free has only 120 hours a month. Still a lot. ↩
