Neocities

Curious about people's code uploading/website writing process... specifically whether you have local copies of files that you upload to Neocities servers... I am considering downloading a brute copy of everything just to be safe but also kind of enjoy this notion of being so untethered to the site that should the server go down (for a while/indefinitely), I'm fine with everything being "lost to the sands of time"

what I used to do was use a node.js script that connected to a simple WYSIWYG editor and used the neocities API to upload the generated page :P

I just use the Neocities editor. Works for me. Sometimes, I use archive.org

I use the neocities editor for small stuff, but for larger pages and projects I develop them then upload. Very very scattered process. I will backup everything at some point though.

I write things in a text editor and paste into files that I want to update. But for new pages I just do everything in a text editor and then upload the file.
