Hosting and Publishing a Website

Spent the morning turning the daily‑notes sync script into a proper terminal GUI. Added toggles for enabling the scheduled task, changing the sync time, updating the notes folder, and configuring the repo URL and path. The interface now loads and saves a JSON config so everything persists cleanly.

Also researched the simplest safe way to authenticate Git pushes from a scheduled task; settled on Git Credential Manager with a GitHub PAT — no secrets in the script, no SSH key juggling, and it works reliably under the same Windows user.

The automation is starting to come together. Still tweaking the formatting from the AI API call. Working well enough to start and afterwards I can edit it, don't have to worry about syncing it works once a day, but I can also trigger it through the GUI. Just got images working too!!

Hosting and Publishing a Website

Found some easy free domains:

• Cloudflare Pages gives a free .pages.dev subdomain — stable, reliable, and perfect for projects.

• GitHub Pages gives a free github.io subdomain — also stable and free forever. I'll likely host my projects this way and link them her

• GitHub Student Developer Pack gives a free .me domain for one year
