Hey! I'm fullstack dev currently living in Beirut. I'm working on an app called Mylo (mylo.fit, feedback super appreciated) and finishing the last year of my Computer Science Bs. When i'm not coding I like to skate, cook (fermentation ftw), and more. So glad to have finally joined Dev.to after all the stalking haha

Hello and welcome! I checked out Mylo, but it asks you to register your email before even telling you what it does - I suspect you'll get more people registering if you have a marketing page of some sort at least telling me why I should register :)

Good luck finishing your last year of CS!

Hey! Thanks for checking it out, you're absolutely right. I think I did things a bit backwards and I'm now working on creating a landing page. Any recommendations?

I want it to load fast so I'd either use a static generator or even just pure html/css.

Yeah, making it load fast is a good goal - If you're used to pure html/css then I would start there, because learning a static site generator will take time away from you actually building the page :)

Then later (once the first page is done), you can always use that same html/css in any static site generator if you plan on making a larger marketing site.

If you want info about content, here's a super long post that I like about how to write good landing pages: julian.com/guide/growth/landing-pages

Good luck!

Awesome, thanks for the resource!

The app itself is already built with vue so I don'tind using something like gridsome. So many options 🤷🏾‍♂️
