FAQ

Who should use this?

Anyone who wants a custom website and doesn't want to deal with the hassle of choosing a design. This website is designed to maximize usability and customization at the same time.

What kind of security does this provide?

Because the website can be deployed statically, there's not a whole lot of concern on security here. However, there are a lot of iFrames in use for the Projects page, so be wary of where you link to in order to prevent cross-site scripting bugs. Also be aware that if you deploy it 100% statically your email address will be exposed on the source code of the contact page (you can fix this by setting up a Lambda function as described on the Dynamic Deployment Tutorial page).

How much does this cost to deploy?

It depends on how you deploy it. If you deploy it through GitHub Pages, you can in theory do so for 100% free, but you will sacrifice certain things (such as keeping your email address out of the source code). AWS is pretty cheap however, and even with an SSL certificate I am able to keep my current costs in AWS below $1.00 USD per month (ie: You can probably use the free tier for hosting this).

How much customization can I add?

You can customize the majority of text on any given page, as well as all of the social media icons, links, etc. You can even customize the color scheme by providing your own Bootstrap Theme.

How much does this cost?

All of this is provided for free as-is. The goal of this was to provide a highly flexible yet simple website design that looks nice and works well that can be deployed cheaply. All I ask is that you keep the link to this project and my website on your Contact Page so others can easily find it.

Do you track any information about my website?

No! None of the information you enter into your site is tracked through this, nor do I track where and how it is used! I do provide the ability to add Google Analytics to your website, but this is for you to use, not me.

Is this website mobile friendly?

Yes! The website is designed to work across many web browsers and devices!
