+> Blazing fast status page with excellent browser support. Built with Hugo. Work in progress, many features planned.
+
+Is [statuspage.io](https://www.statuspage.io/) too expensive? Do you need an open source alternative for your project that is supported on archaic browsers like IE8 and never stops beating? cState is here to help.
+
+[Live demo](https://status.polargalaxy.com)
+
+[![Deploy to Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/img/deploy/button.svg)](https://app.netlify.com/start/deploy?repository=https://github.com/onlinemantas/cstatet)
+
+## Usage
+
+To set up cState, do the following:
+
+1. Deploy the status page, preferably using [Netlify](https://app.netlify.com/start/deploy?repository=https://github.com/onlinemantas/cstatet) and/or [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com).
+2. Upload your favicon and logo to `/static/` and edit `config.yml`.
+
+Once that is done, you can create a new post like this:
+
+```
+hugo new incident/dns-killed-us.md
+```
+
+Then, go into `incident/dns-killed-us.md` and follow this format:
+
+```md
