Is there a good alternative to github pages? I need just a static website up.

  • I have a domain.
  • I have my site (local machine)
  • And that’s all I have.
  • I have a machine that could be running 24/7 too.

    Use any static site generator and build a Docker container. You could even try out this idea though its lack of http/2+ support might not make it the best option.

        I think it depends on the number of assets. Generally speaking you’re probably right, but if there are a lot of small files it would be a lot smoother to load them over http/2.

          There is zero question about it. It will be absolutely fine for some dude’s static website over a residential internet connection.
