Ship your first site in 60 seconds

  1. Create a site folder
    peacock init mysite
    Gives you a folder with an index.html - or bring any folder of your own (a dashboard export, slides, a prototype, anything static).
  2. Deploy it
    cd mysite
    peacock deploy
    That's the whole pipeline. No build, no config, no tickets.
  3. Share your link
    https://mysite.peacock.michaelwhchan.com:8080/
    Live the moment deploy finishes; updates show up within ~30 seconds of redeploying. Your site also appears on this page.

Prefer drag & drop?

Run peacock drop and a little page opens in your browser. Drag your folder onto it, type a name, hit Deploy - no terminal commands at all. Great for non-engineers.

Command reference

peacock init <name>

Scaffold a new site folder with a starter page.

peacock deploy

Publish the current folder. --name to pick the subdomain, --dir to point elsewhere. Redeploying syncs exactly - files you deleted locally are removed.

peacock drop

Open the drag-and-drop deploy console in your browser.

peacock delete <name>

Remove a site. Asks you to type the name back before doing it.

peacock restore <name>

Undo a delete - brings back every file, up to 30 days later.

peacock open <name>

Open a site in your browser.

Removing a site

  1. Delete it
    peacock delete mysite
    It shows what will be removed and asks you to type the name back to confirm - so you can't nuke a site by accident.
  2. Changed your mind?
    peacock restore mysite
    Every file comes back, as long as it's within 30 days of deleting. After that it's gone for good.

How it works

Your folder syncs to cloud storage; a tiny server maps <name>.peacock.michaelwhchan.com straight onto it. No frameworks, no build steps, no databases to babysit - which is why it is fast, cheap, and nearly impossible to break. Site names: lowercase letters, digits, and hyphens.
