Launching a static site with staging and production
Reliability comes from simple architecture, explicit deployment behavior, and clear rollback procedures.
Use static HTML with semantic structure, separate staging and production branches, and deployment sync commands that make file state predictable over time.
When CSS/JS are immutable-cached, ship versioned asset paths for every substantive visual revision. This avoids stale client styles and keeps rollbacks straightforward.
