I am Nik Butler

On my daily persusing of Feed.ly content I came across an article How to Make a Simple CMS With Cloudflare, GitHub Actions and Metalsmith Having previouly toyed with Github hooks and Amazon Lambda processes to pull, build, and then post to S3 a React app I was curious about just how straight forward the article would be to follow. I understoof the principles and having an example to follow would aid in the learning. Hence this site now exists.

Originally Knowledgeniches had a purpose for looking to curate one pager articles that summarised a single topic or concept to create the "too long; didnt read" of niche areas of learning. Sure I didnt do anything with that project but i had the domain and I wanted to move away from Loudmouthman after nearly 20 years.

whilst digging into how to add css and js and content and theme .. element. more on Metalsmith

I discovered in the instructions that maybe my own approach to the project would be different and that some files are skipped and some are included which had me scratching my head for a while.
