This repo holds one of a series of examples of JAMstack sites from a freeCodeCamp video. The video, "Introduction to JAMstack" is available to view for free on freeCodeCamp.

The first of our 6 code examples, this is a very basic starting point. Just a single, static asset which we will build on as the tutorial progresses.

In the video, we show this single asset site being deployed via Netlify Drop for the simplest drag and drop CDN deployment.

To work on this example locally, you can clone the repository and simply start editing. There is no build step or any pre-requisites.

git clone https://github.com/philhawksworth/fcc-1-simply-static

If you wanted to quickly clone this repository and deploy it as a new site on Netlify you can click the button below for a rapid start.
