Why we build static-first

Most marketing sites don't need a database on every request. Pre-building pages at deploy time gives visitors HTML that's ready to go, straight from a CDN.

What you get

• Speed. Pages are served as files, so there's nothing to compute per visit.
• Security. No server-side code running in production means less to patch.
• Lower cost. Static hosting is cheap — often free at small scale.

Static doesn't mean stuck. A headless CMS or a Git-based editor keeps content easy to change.

A minimal Eleventy page

Write in **Markdown**, publish as HTML.

When a page genuinely needs live data, we add it where it's needed — not everywhere.
