#2I really like that idea and I understand that this is aimed specifically at the friend mentioned on the site so it takes their technical ability into account but I think for most people who are struggling with basic tasks like these instructions like
> Create a directory to hold your website and cd into it.
would already confuse them.
Now that you already got that nice domain I think I'd be great to have a guide like that aimed at beginners with more detailed instructions. I could see this as a great resource to link friends who always thought about getting their own little site, even if it's just a page listing their contact details.

Python 3 equivalent is:
`python -m http.server 8000`
In case anyone was interested.

You've got to get your earn the right to downvote by being a productive member of the community. I think it's 500 karma before you can downvote

Get a free OpenShift account. You can configure your stack by point-and-click, then clone a git repo, and push to it to deploy.
