-cState was built to work best with Netlify and comes with the neccesary files to enable Netlify CMS.
+This is how you create a **new site powered by cState.** What you are generating is a Hugo site with specific, already existing modifications (to Hugo, cState acts like a theme).
-You don't have to use Netlify, but this is the best all-around option:
-
-- To get you started, Netlify is **completely free** (you can pay for extra features, bandwidth, etc)
-- It supports all the features you'd want for hosting a modern website: **HTTPS, domain linking, worldwide asset serving, rollbacks, and more**
-- As you'd expect, **Netlify CMS** works best with Netlify. **It takes just a few clicks** to make it work
+**IF YOU ARE A DEVELOPER / WANT TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT, SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM. THIS IS FOR USERS.**
+
+Aside from hosting the repository itself on Git (usually on GitHub), your next options are:
+* **Site deployment platform:**
+ * Cloudflare Pages (recommended for larger teams)
+ * Netlify (recommended for most easy setup)
+ * GitHub Pages
+ * GitLab Pages
+ * Vercel
+ * render.com
+ * host it yourself
+* **Admin panels / CMS:**
+ * Forestry.io
+ * Netlify CMS
+ * Or just edit locally / use your Git provider's online editor (github.com, gitlab.com, etc)

+### 🧡 Cloudflare Pages (GitHub Pages, render.com, Vercel, Forestry...)
-This sets up cState with its default settings from the [the example repository](https://github.com/cstate/example) repo.
+If you wish to use Netlify, use the button below for easier deployment.
-If you cloned the example repository and want to use that newly forked repo, click the 'New site from Git' button in the user dashboard.
+All other static site generator platforms require you to follow this instruction:
-These are the settings you should be using:
+1. Clone the repository cstate/example - [here is a link to do it on GitHub](https://github.com/cstate/example/generate)
+2. Go to pages.cloudflare.com and sign in
+3. Create a new site from Git, select your newly generated repository
+4. These are the settings you should be using:
+ Build command: **hugo**
+ Publish directory: **public**
+ Add one build environment variable
+ Key: **HUGO_VERSION**
- + Value: **0.80** (or later)
-+ Also **for the Build image selection, pick Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 or later**

As of v4.2.1, the [cState automatically ships with this file](https://github.com/cstate/cstate/releases/tag/v4.2.1), but support is still experimental. It may take up to 30 minutes before the site is available after the first deployment.
As of this time, this is a relatively untested option, but Hugo does seem to generate the right things (this can be checked by downloading the **CI/CD artifacts**).
-According to GitLab, it may take up to 30 minutes before the site is available after the first deployment.

You can [make Netlify CMS work on GitLab](https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/gitlab-backend/), but that requires overriding an existing file in the theme. Create a file in `static/admin/config.yml` and follow the instructions linked earlier. (cState by default ships with Git Gateway for Netlify.)
-### GitHub Pages, Cloudflare Pages, Vercel, Forestry, and others

-There is no official, separate documentation for these, but if you look below to see how to deploy manually, the instructions will be the same everywhere.

### Docker
-cState comes with a Dockerfile and Netlify ([according to their article from 2016](https://www.netlify.com/blog/2016/10/18/how-our-build-bots-build-sites/)) uses a similar Docker system to build cState. This is an option for people who prefer Docker and NGINX instead of serverless, but serverless still has the priority in our development.
