Looking for tutorials to write, would anyone be interested in a tutorial on using flask to generate static websites and hosting them on Netlify?

I'm currently out of work, so I'm trying to get myself to write tutorials and general tech pieces. But I'm not sure if this stuff is too obvious for anyone to bother, so looking for some feedback.

Thanks.

UPDATE: Ended up going with it. Would love feedback before I start spreading it around, especially from novices / learners: https://github.com/deadwisdom/flask-static-tutorial

  1. If you got the time I say do it.
    People who start learning now they will probably read it and it will help them.
    It doesn’t matter if the tutorial already exists from someone else. If you enjoy creating it do it and have a good time with it.

  2. Yes, that would be interesting. Before diving in, and completing the whole tutorial, perhaps post an outline of the workflow here. You may get some useful input about alternative workflows and alternative libraries, and perhaps gain a bigger audience.

  3. It could be interesting but why use flask to make static websites? I’m not sure I understand why it can’t be done without flask, since flask is a backend and Netlify only hosts the front end. Maybe I’m misunderstanding something

  4. Are you talking about something similar to Jekyll and Hugo? If so, that could certainly make for an interesting read.
