Using static websites for tiny archives (via) Alex Chan:
Over the last year or so, I’ve been creating static websites to browse my local archives. I’ve done this for a variety of collections, including:
- paperwork I’ve scanned
- documents I’ve created
- screenshots I’ve taken
- web pages I’ve bookmarked
- video and audio files I’ve saved
This is such a neat idea. These tiny little personal archive websites aren't even served through a localhost web server - they exist as folders on disk, and Alex browses them by opening up the index.html
file directly in a browser.
