NowPages – Free "now page" generator, no sign-up, pure HTML output

I've been a fan of Derek Sivers' /now movement (nownownow.com) for a while. The idea is simple — a page that says what you're focused on right now, not a static bio. Hundreds of people have one, but making one still means setting up hosting and writing HTML yourself. That's a weird amount of friction for something that should take 60 seconds. So I built NowPages. You pick a handle, fill out a short form, choose a theme, and hit publish. Your page is live instantly at nowpages.github.io/your-handle. No accounts — you get an edit token to update it later.

A few things I think are interesting technically:

Generated pages are zero JavaScript, pure HTML and CSS. They load fast everywhere. The whole stack is Cloudflare Workers + GitHub Pages free tiers. No database, no server costs. Every page ships with JSON-LD, Open Graph, and Twitter Card metadata, plus a dynamically generated social preview image (separate Cloudflare Worker). There are 5 themes with hand-picked typography pairings (JetBrains Mono, Source Serif, IBM Plex, Inter, etc).

The edit flow uses a token instead of accounts because I wanted zero friction and zero stored personal data. You publish, save your token, and that's it. The whole thing is MIT-licensed and self-hostable if you want to run your own instance.
