Before deploying a static site into light rain, perform the following checks with a clipboard you do not intend to use.
Preflight
- Confirm every page has a title.
- Confirm RSS still builds after the third coffee.
- Replace the sentence that says “write something better here.”
- Ask whether the button should do anything.
Smoke test
npm run build
npm run previewReview table
| Check | Expected result | Actual result |
|---|---|---|
| Home page | Loads before the kettle clicks | Probably |
| Blog page | Shows several posts | Yes |
| Sitemap | Exists quietly | Yes |
The deployment can proceed when the rain becomes mostly decorative.
