is there anything more chill than summer storms?

hi hi! love your blog! I am also working on building sites for my portfolio but am a little stumped on how/where to deploy them. would you mind sharing what you are using for deployment? thanks!

Places to Deploy Your Website

Hiya! I know a few places I've tried in the past and some I am yet to try but I know other developers use them!

GitHub pages

GitHub Pages is a free static site hosting service that allows you to publish your website directly from a GitHub repository. It supports HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, as well as Jekyll, a static site generator. I used GitHub pages a lot since I use GitHub to keep all my repositories.

Replit

Replit is a cloud-based development environment that provides an integrated IDE, code editor, and hosting platform all in one place. With Replit, you can easily create and deploy web apps, games, and other projects in multiple programming languages such as Python, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I use Replit a lot too for my other much smaller projects that I can’t upload on GitHub to run the program online!

Netlify

Netlify offers a free plan for static site hosting that includes features such as continuous deployment, custom domains, and SSL encryption. It supports HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, as well as serverless functions and other backend technologies. 

Heroku

Heroku offers a free plan for hobbyist developers that allows you to deploy up to 5 applications. It supports many languages and frameworks, including Ruby, Node.js, Python, Java, PHP, and Go. Heroku allows free hosting for small applications.

Firebase Hosting

Firebase Hosting is a free service that allows you to host and deploy your web app or static content to a global content delivery network (CDN) with SSL encryption. It supports HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and other static assets. It allows free hosting for small applications.

Surge

Surge is a free static site hosting service that allows you to publish your website with a custom domain or a Surge subdomain. It supports HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and other static assets. Allows free hosting with unlimited bandwidth.

Each of these free deployment options has its own cons such as: 

Its lack of server-side functionality

Limited database support

The cost of advanced features

Limited control over the infrastructure

May not be suitable for more complex websites or applications 

However, for small projects, I think you’ll be fine with the free options!

Hoped this helps and good luck with your websites’ deployments! 🥰🙌🏾💗

ferns and foggy windows

This is part two of a school supplies masterlist / faves list that I’ve been putting together. You can find part one, which covers study space and backpack essentials, here. This part ( part two ) focuses more on stationary. I hope you like it and find some supplies that you love ^-^

pencil cases:

I use the large version of this muji pen case to hold my basics, which is all I need to bring to most classes ( I have another bigger case for my scissors and calculator and stuff )

lovely tartan pencil case ( also by muji ) that could be used as an additional larger case

*chants* moleskine, MOLESKINE, MOLESKINE

nice n small yellow pen tube

a very organised, medium sized one in lots of different colours

pencils:

this is a 0.5mm lead mechanical pencil which has a nice body in lots of different neon colours

moleskine pencil - need I say more?

I use the papermate pacer 100 with a 0.5mm lead, and it’s one of the nicest cheap mechanical pencils I’ve ever had

here is a very nice fancy one (but as well as being very nice, it’s also very expensive)

another fancy one, again very nice but not quite as expensive

writing pens:

I mostly use a black uniball insight rollerball - the pen design is nice but it does have a downside in that the line is a bit wide / it bleeds a little

sakura pigma microns are fineliners with great quality ink that are available in very small tip sizes

uni-pin fineliners! here is a pack with a bunch of different sizes that can do anything from bold titles to tiny details ( I use these and trust me when I say that they are so good )

I often use the black version of the muji 0.5 gel pens linked under coloured pens, when I want a more crisp line than the uniball

I’ve moved away from writing with fineliners, but these artline 200 ones are what I’ve liked in the past

coloured pens:

these muji 0.5 gel pens are what I use most often - they come in loads of colours, make a really crisp line, and look so pretty

here is an 8-pack of the artline fineliners in assorted bright colours - I’ve never tried them but I assume they write the same as the black version

a pack of a bunch of different colours of 0.8 + 0.4 double sided pens

20 colours of erasable pilot frixion slimline pens

sparkly gel pens

markers:

I use the faber-castell PITT artist pens with a brush tip, which come in a lot of colours and are fantastic for titles

sakura pigma brush pens are similar to the PITT markers

24 colours of pilot frixion erasable markers

copic ciao 6-piece sets are cheaper than full size copics but still have nice layerable colour 

eight colours of metallic markers - great for titles or on black / dark paper for posters or projects

highlighters:

I use stabilo swing cool highlighters, which have nice bright colours and the only downside is that they can smudge your writing a bit

soft colours + erasable pilot friction ones ( i’ve tried out the bright versions in a store and they work pretty well )

uni propus window highlighters have gorgeous packaging, two different sized tips, and soft colours

while looking through jetpens I found the pilot spotliters, which look quite similar to the propus ones

monami essenti-soft highlighter pens have really pretty design and pastel colours

other important bits and pieces:

here is a very cute blue sharpener

lead refills for your mechanical pencil that come in a lot of different grades ( more )

white out - I use the papermate liquid paper correction pen and I find that it dries relatively fast and has a nice enough body

hole punch and stapler ( the colours are so good I’m DYING )

super compact pen-style scissors ( comes in a few different colours )

is it glue? is it tape? it’s both

mt masking tape is perfect for decorating your bullet journal ( there is some of this in a shop on the way to my yoga class and every time I walk past it takes a lot of restraint not to buy some )

muji does very nice 15cm rulers ( I use the second one ): 1 / 2 / 3

kikki k has lots of cute stickers for your bullet journal / planner

mini correction tape that can easily fit in your pencil case

glue stick in the shape of a pen

and an eraser in the shape of a pen

the cutest sticky tabs in the history of sticky tabs

Don’t stop until you’re proud.
