I built a free astro and tailwind static site for GitHub pages

Hacker News

Using my GitHub pro+ with vs code setup This is a demonstration of how good of a site can I build essentially 100% for free + free hosting (if coded manually without a 50$ subscription) And I went completely overboard on purpose its 99% useless for a real production deployment im sure but for mini blogs probably might be useful idk I dont even use the new GitHub spark or whatever to slow compared to 1k+ line edits every couple minutes im obviously working on a ton of other things I won't make public yet but will in the future
