VoidWarranties static website is using Jekyll static site generator with Github pages. Reasoning:
- Github is hosting, so no hosting costs for us and good uptime
- can add/edit pages through Github using markdown, cfr. a CMS
- well documented and everything is in Github by design
- use Jekyll for templating, so it's more powerful than a static website (e.g. default template with navbar)
