1mbsite is a free platform for creating websites. Website code can’t exceed 1 megabyte in size, but don’t let that fool you: you can build whatever your heart desires.
So many congrats for the launch! This product has a lot of potential to be big - as a great prototyping tool and static hosting API for developers. Great work Dalton! ✨🥞
It’s so exciting to know that 1MB is about to be featured. That honestly means so much to me 😄 I’ve been working on this project for a little less than a month and thought I’d share it with you all.

OMG now websites have a 1 megabite limit too!? What about second layer solutions? #FML
@gerbz I’m sorry my product doesn’t appeal to you. Geared towards developers who want to easily build and share micro sites.

This is really interesting! I like the focus on getting things live and hosted. I also appreciate the emphasis on the size, for those of us aiming to cater some of our content to those who may have restrictive internet connectivity.
If I was interested in doing more editing on my machine and deploying (although I love the browser editing functionality), I'm guessing the repo for the CLI is here: https://github.com/1MB-Site/depl... Where should I go for documentation around properly using your command line interface?
Thanks again!
@rdev I don’t have anything against third party sources. As long as your code on my server doesn’t exceed 1MB I don’t care.

let’s be honest!

Totally loved it 😍😍. I think 1MB is more than sufficient to build a minimalistic landing page , thanks for this product.

I appreciate the concept about ease of deployment, getting things up, and using small sizes for the site. Definitely will be watching this going forward.
Pros:
Easy to understand and use out of the box, very lightweight
Cons:
This may be early stages, developer documentation appears to be somewhat light
To those reading this review I’d just like to say that I don’t let emotions cloud my judgement when it comes to moderation. 1mbsite has a documented Community Standards page that users must agree to upon registration (https://policy.1mb.site/community). On a side note the concerns brought up about security are absolutely absurd. I use SSL to encrypt network traffic and use safeguards to protect your personal info on my server.

I have been testing this product our for a while and overall it is fine, although I have noticed some things that bothered or upset me.
1. The editing process is not intuitive.
2. The documentation is incredibly lacking in well, documentation.
3. Sites have been banned without warning nor a written policy.
4. Rankings are extremely unfair.
5. Passwords cannot be changed
6. Downtime is incredibly high without any notice during maintaince.
7. Code editor is done by a third party which has buggy and poorly built code.
8. One megabyte of storage is too limiting, expecially if you are competing with services like Glitch.
9. Security is very low.
10. You can get banned just for "upseting" the administrator.
Pros:1. Responsive administrator.
Cons:1. You can only have one file, and it must be a "index.html".
2. Dynamic sites aren't possible.
3. Miner was implemented on all sites.
