Web Studio

Describe a website in plain words; a developer builds it in a folder, working and clickable, right here.

How it works

Tell the developer what you want, the way you'd tell a friend who codes: "a page for my sister's pottery classes — photos, prices, a way to contact her", "a little app that splits a restaurant bill", "an invitation page for the wedding". It builds the whole thing as one file in the sites folder — and because of how Cabinet works, the finished site appears as an app in this cabinet, ready to open and click.

Each site is one self-contained file: no accounts, no installs, nothing to break in a year. Ask for changes the same way — "make the buttons bigger", "add a photo section" — and it edits that site and nothing else.

Make it yours

Open setup.md and replace the example answers — the kind of things you want to build and how you like them to look. The developer reads it before every build, so your taste accumulates instead of being re-explained.

Putting a site on the internet

Everything lives in this cabinet until you say otherwise — nothing is published by itself, ever. When a site is ready for the world, ask: "put the lemonade stand online." If your computer is signed in to GitHub, the developer can publish the site with GitHub Pages and give you the public address; it will tell you the exact one command to run if you're not signed in yet. More ways to deploy are coming to Cabinet; this one works today.

The Monday review

Once a week the developer walks every site and writes a short review: does it still open, is it still one clean file, is anything broken. You'll find it in the Studio app under the site list — a quiet habit that keeps old sites from rotting.

What's inside

• Web Developer — the one agent. Builds and edits your sites; publishes only when you ask.
• Monday Studio Review — the one routine. Runs at 09:00 every Monday.
• Studio — the one page. Every site, one card each, one click to open.
• sites/ — one folder per site. The example lemonade stand shows the shape.
• setup.md — your taste, so you only explain it once.
