Adventures in Web Hosting and Design

13 Apr 2019 - Jessica Fairchild

About a week ago I remembered that I pay for a domain.

I tried to set up a website with the company I lease my domain through, but after building the site I was informed that I would have to pay $45 to actually host the site.

Rest In Peace.

Despite that frustration, I still had this domain, and I still wanted to set up a website.

So here we are. I’ve spent about 3 hours today studying Liquid (or whatever form of Ruby it is that Jekyll runs), and I’ve got a basic site set up. I’ll be tinkering on it throughout this quarter, and hopefully by the time I graduate (this summer) it should look halfway decent.
