Review website builder functionality

Detail

Linked to #16, in order to understand the best method for designing the website we should understand what is possible, and cost implications of different providers.

This includes understanding whether we can pay for e.g. 5 years of hosting before the end of funding in March.

Providers include:

• ReadtheDocs
• Jekyll
• Wordpress
• Webflow/Wix similar

Any others?

Create skeleton for the website design

Detail

Before we decide what method to use for the website (ReadtheDocs, website builder, WordPress, raw code), we should layout design plans for the website.

The simplest thing would be to wireframe the ideal design for the website, to discuss with the CMWG.

Unable to join the Slack community

Hello

Very interested in joining and learning more about deploying TREs, especially in the public sector, but I'm unable to join the slack channel because I don't have a .ac.uk email address (and I expect my public sector email will block anything from slack as it is banned).

Am I able to join?

Many thanks
