# Did you say Powershell?

Yes I did say Powershell. Yep this whole site I built was done with a Powershell module on the Powershell gallery:-

# What is it about?

What is this all about? Well basically everything you are looking at right now has been done in a plain notepad, with no fancy coding skills. Although these pages maybe static pages, it means I can type it all in notepad with ease.

All the main documentation on how to do all of this is located using the following link:-

Official Retype Website
https://retype.com
This was super easy to get building this site, and I was able to preview it whilst building it! So how did I do this? Pretty simple:-

Install-Module Retype
Install-Retype
Initialize-RetypeWatch -Path C:\yourWebsitePath\

# Then what happened?

This automatically builds the website in that directory all you have to do is then get making simple markdown files. Start off with an **index.md ** file make a title, type some text under the title, save it. You will then see your browser which should have automatically open to localhost:5000 will automatically refresh the changes as soon as you save the .md file you are working on. It really is as simple as that 😃
