Static Assets	HTML, CSS, JS files that comprise the web page

Problem

Deploying static assets to 10+ Sites.

Context

• Domain names all registered with [[Cloudflare]]
• Static assets for all domains generated from a single Jekyll project
  • All differences between Sites have been extracted to metadata files

Options

1. Separate repo / project for each domain
   • Pros
     • Clean separation between each Site
   • Cons
     • Significant overhead in creating repo & [[Firebase]] project for each Site
     • Minimal ROI given differences between Sites are contained in metadata files
2. Separate git branch for each domain / site
   • Pros
     • Uses existing architecture of template project
   • Cons
     • Need a bespoke build pipeline to handle deployments to Cloudflare
