Getting Started

Publishing on ENS has never been easier.

Ready to bring your ENS name to life?
It's simple, just:

Click Fork!

In the top right corner you will see the Fork button. Clicking this will take you into editing mode. You can choose from a set of existing templates:

Edit

Write content, create, or remove pages, be creative!

Publish

When your content is ready simply click the Publish button. This will take you through the publishing process. In order to publish your simple page you need an ENS name (e.g. your-name.eth). These can be acquired using the ENS app.

Features

Simple Page is unlike any other content management system.

This section describes all unique features that Simple Page provides. For a more detailed description of how everything works, see the architecture section.

Web Native Content Editor

Publishing a website on ENS shouldn't need to be a hassle. No longer do you need to download custom software, or worse yet, understand how to use developer tools just to publish a simple site. With Simple Page you create your website directly in the browser using a regular markdown editor. You can create any number of pages and link between them with ease.

Censorship Resistance

Having your voiced silenced is never fun. Simple Page is architected to mitigate various types of censorship risks. By combining ENS domains with IPFS we not only get a system that is tamper proof, but we also make it very hard to stop someone from retrieving your content. ENS domains is based on Ethereum and Simple Page publishes fingerprints of your website as an ENS record. Since Ethereums consensus mechanism is extremely robust, messing with this fingerprint becomes next to impossible. ENS domains are also made available through a variety of mirrors, e.g. eth.link, eth.limo, eth.ac, eth.sucks. Your website content is stored on IPFS, which is a p2p network with proven anti-censorship qualities. Anyone can run an IPFS node and seed the content of one or multiple websites.

Fork to Remix

Remixing the work of others should not only be easy, but encouraged. Simple Page gives you the power to fork any existing website and tailor them to your needs, or you can build your own from the ground up. Simply hit that Fork button!

Simple Subscription Model

Using tools built on sane, self-sovereign, p2p technology like blockchains shouldn't imply insane economics models. You don't actually need to stake a useless token, or buy five NFTs just to get the most simple functionaly. With Simple Page there is no useless token or hidden fees, just a cheap straight foward subscription that makes the application sustainable for the long run.

You are in Control

A lot of projects like to talk about how you own your data, and how you control your destiny. While smart contracts certainly provide this type of functionality, most users are stuck with application interfaces that developers can rugpull. Simple Page does things differently. When you publish your website using Simple Page, not only do you get your content hosted on your ENS domain, but the editor follows you along to your website as well. This means that even if the simplepage.eth website gets removed completely, you can continue to use and update your site without any issues.

But who hosts the content and makes sure it's available on IPFS?
Fortunately Simple Page provides an open source indexer that anyone can run. This makes the community fully independent from the developers. As long as one comunity member runs the service, all sites will remain available!
