Can I ask what the movie club chats are usually like?
#
thamara_k
I’m not much of a talker but would like to join one, one of these days
#
thamara_k
I do watch a lot of movies
#
[Trevor_Morris]
Just informal natter. There is usually a starter question to get the chat going before moving on to the movie that was for the month

Hi everyone. I just started my site yesterday. I was using github pages before, but I did it on neocities. I was wondering if you all were using static site generators
#
rod
right now I have a single, 100% handwritten HTML page
#
[capjamesg]
Welcome rod!
#
[capjamesg]
What is an SSG?
#
Loqi
hey rod, [capjamesg]: it looks like this conversation is getting pretty technical (static site generators, SSG), can you take it to #indieweb-dev?
#
Loqi
A static site generator or SSG is software that developers can use (typically requiring command line access) to setup a personal site that uses a set of text content files typically stored on a server, and transforms them into a set of static HTML files for a website https://indieweb.org/SSG
#
[capjamesg]
You can find out more about static site generators on our wiki ^^
#
[capjamesg]
If you have specific questions, please ask them in #indieweb-dev, which is our technical channel.
#
[capjamesg]
This channel is more for talk about the culture of websites, things we’re making, design, interfaces, etc.
#
rod
No problem. Sorry, I didn't know that channel existed
#
[capjamesg]
No worries — all good!
#
[capjamesg]
We have a couple of different channels which you can see listed at http://indieweb.org/discuss
