> Blazing fast status page with excellent browser support. Built with Hugo. Work in progress, may have bugs and incomplete features.

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.choraleapp.com)

[![Deploy to Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/img/deploy/button.svg)](https://app.netlify.com/start/deploy?repository=https://github.com/mistermantas/cstate)

## 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/mistermantas/cstate) 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
