# Simple website

(Not scalable)


### Needs

* Tiny Computer


### Generate

1. Download and write RasPi SD card image


`xz -e hypriot-1.7.0.img.xz`

`dd if=hypriot-1.7.0.img of=/dev/sda bs=128KB conv=fsync`

When this completes, the card is ready to boot up the RasPi.

2. Insert SD card into RasPi, boot up, and configure

3. Create a new directionctory with index file and start script


`cp tinydatacenter/starter-website.com mysite.com`



`cd mysite.com`

`nano index.html`

Nano is a text editor similar to MS Word, except it runs without a cursor or windows that can be moved around. It's called a "Command line tool"


If this is too uncomfortable we can skip sraight to installing a [desktop](desktop.html) system so that you can use a normal window based text editor.





### Operate

4. Start website with start script




5. Make a change
6. Rebuild and restart website

### Destroy

7. Stop script
