Great idea to leverage GitHub pages! Not sure if this has been done before but this is certainly a lucrative SaaS opportunity due to the non-existent marginal cost of creating a GitHub site.

-- IF OP is the author (or the author sees this) Couple of nitpicks about your landing page:

- Syntax / typo: "no server's rent" --> "no server costs to pay" or similar

- Please do your visitors a favour and add controls to your YouTube embed. It might seem 'aesthetically pleasing' to have a sleek video but it's an explanatory film that a user A) might want to full-screen (lots of small text) and B) might want to be skip around in

Would also consider changing 'About Us' to a marketing-style header pushing the product itself (as it's not really an 'About Us' anyway) as well as an explanatory line or two that explains the product properly and succinctly, as icons alone don't really suffice IMO.

Other than that, great concept — and great start!

Agreed about the youtube video. It is a bit frustrating not to be able to move forward, especially because the typing speed is quite slow :D

A few blog examples made with hubpress on the landing page would be great too.

Yes the youtube video is really frustrating and i will change that.

Thank you for the suggestion about adding blog example ;)

Not sure if this has been done before

Seems similar to TinyPress: https://tinypress.co/

Agreed. Workaround: Click video for focus, either click again or press space to play. Use left/right arrow keys for 5s jumps, < and > to adjust speed. I use these commands about every 30 minutes.
