This website was built and is hosted using the following tools:

• Jekyll - a static website generator - there are numerous advantages to using a generator such as Jekyll rather than something such as Wordpress. Wordpress is great but as Jekyll sites are written in a combination of HTML and Markdown they are entirely portable and replicable.
• Formspree - we use this for our ‘contact us’ form. It allows custom forms without needing server access so that we can host on S3.
• Git/GitHub - we use this for version control, obviously storing the site in a private repository.
• AWS S3 - S3 stands for ‘simple storage solution’. We use it for storing the built website in a read only bucket.
• AWS Cloudfront - this is the content delivery network that we use to distribute the website.
• AWS Route53 - registrar for our website; we have always separated out hosting from domain registration and previously used 123 Reg for this.
• Markdown - as above, we write content in Markdown where necessary.

Simple fast and responsive. We hope our legal advice is also simple, fast and responsive.
