@bw Sorry for the maybe unprompted criticism… know that I’m writing all this because I think you are on the right track and want this to succeed!

I really wish I found this resource when I was 15 and learning to host my first shitty js calculator. Neocities and the other recommendations are 10 times better than what I stumbled into when I googled “free html host” and now I have a good article series to recommend to normal people :^)

@bw I also read it again, and I think you did actually tackle some of my points somewhat in the article (e.g. you mention where a file extension is for a file), but I think really hammering stuff like this home for people who are “not in tech” is important if their accessibility specifically is what you’re aiming for.

@mikkelens I appreciate this feedback. Yeah I mentioned briefly in the introduction that knowledge of using a computer and ability to create files and folders were prerequisites of the book. That being said, I agree that some more discussion it would help. I'm not sure if I want to write something and host it myself, or maybe just point people to some kind of primer on creating files and folders.
