First Site Build

Core Idea

Your first public page proves the full source-to-output loop works.

Markdown source -> build-website -> generated HTML -> HTTPS URL

Course URL

Your first public page uses this shape:

https://lf2607.kolamayermakers.org/~username/

What To Verify

• Source exists under ~/src/pages.
• build-website finishes without an error.
• Generated HTML exists under ~/public_html.
• The HTTPS URL returns your page.

Proof Commands

test -d ~/src/pages
build-website
test -f ~/public_html/index.html
curl -I https://lf2607.kolamayermakers.org/~username/

Replace username with your course username in the URL. A 200 status means the web server returned the page path successfully.

Docs Pointers

• Read build-website, Markdown basics, filesystem as CMS, and platform reference.
