# DerekGooding.github.io

This repository hosts a **single page static website** served via **GitHub Pages**.

It is intentionally simple.

No build pipeline.  

No frontend frameworks.  

No JavaScript runtime.  

No CI or SDK dependencies.

The site exists to advertise **freelance legacy .NET modernization services**, not to showcase frontend engineering tricks.

Live site:  

https://derekgooding.github.io/

## What This Site Is

A one page sales landing page for:

- Legacy .NET Framework modernization

- Incremental upgrades to .NET 10

- WinForms and WPF refactoring

- Production safe, step by step improvements

- Code reviews with actionable modernization plans

If your application is older than five years and still in production, this is the intended audience.

---

## What This Site Is Not

- Not a Blazor application

- Not a demo project

- Not a portfolio gallery

- Not a CI/CD experiment

- Not a place to overengineer a marketing page

All of that was removed deliberately.

---

## Repository Structure

/

├── index.html # The entire site

├── styles.css # Minimal styling

└── README.md # This file

That is the complete system.

---

## Deployment

Deployment is handled automatically by **GitHub Pages**.

- Branch: `main`

- Source: repository root

- Output: static files

There is no build step and no GitHub Actions workflow.

Push to `main` and the site updates.

---

## Why Static HTML

Because this is a marketing page.

Static HTML is:

- Faster

- More reliable

- Easier to maintain

- Impossible to break with SDK mismatches

- The correct tool for the job

Frameworks were removed after they proved to add complexity without value.
