fabulous i think you might have just invented a whole new architecture ! have a look at is DSR the future ?
Thank you! I checked your post. I'm happy to see my tutorial inspired you to create something! I'm waiting to see the result of your work.
wow thats great motivation ! thanks ! i promise to publish SOMETHING today !
BTW i was up late yesterday publishing my node express pug 4 glitch & zeit demo so 'today' means before 2am tomorrow 😄
I recently did something similar with a Google Cloud Storage bucket and a domain that I registered through Google Domains. All I needed was my Google account and some help from the Google documentation (cloud.google.com/storage/docs/host...).
I'm a little conflicted when I read about stuff like fast.io. On one hand it seems simple and convenient. On the other hand it feels like it adds something extra that isn't really necessary.
Anyway, I enjoyed reading the article. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm.
In my opinion, there is a lot of tools available on the web to host and deploy websites.
Every tool is "specialized" for one type of deployment. It depends on what you need and what you prefer (also it depends on the price of the solution).
For example, I think this solution is pretty good to deploy fast or for people who are not very experienced but want to put their site online.
Thank you for your feedback! Glad you like the article!
Can't argue simplicity compared to Netlify. You can literally open it (logged in), drop a folder from your OS, and the site is deployed.
Of course, alternatively to configuring to run builds automatically from each push on a Git Repo.
That's why I decided to share these tools. It's so simple.
I didn't make a beginner's guide for Git because I wanted to differentiate my articles from other static hosting posts (most people do a tutorial with Git).
However, as you say, it's working pretty well with Git also.
nice heres mine running from github osde8info
Congratulations! Did you discover the tool with this article?

Have you tested firebase deployment? I like it a lot. I'm going to give yours a try for sure
I never tried Firebase deployment. I will give a try. Thank you for sharing this tool!
Thanks, but What if I want my custom domain name point to Google drive hosting ?
Hello, as I said in the article, you can go back to the dashboard and click on your website.
You will find some options in the left pane. In "Domains" you have the possibility to configure a custom domain name. Hope it helps you!
Question, If I have a static website, can I make it dynamic by connecting it to Firebase?
I‘m not sure about it.
A static website can use javascript and, for example, JQuery.
Using Firebase looks to be able with a server-side language. In that case, you are not able to do it.
However, you can host a static website with Firebase. Maybe you can have a look and check if it’s possible to make a dynamic website.
Thanks, it made me easy for completing my school project
Perfect, I'm happy it helped you with your school project!
