Over the next four days we're going to play with Pelican - a Python based Static Site Generator. After we build our base site we're also going to look at deploying the site online using Netlify!

## Days 1 - 2:
8
+
9
+
We're taking a slightly different approach for this chapter.
10
+
11
+
Given the nature of the videos in this chapter we're asking that over the first two days you simply watch and follow along with the videos.
12
+
13
+
There's no need to dive too far into the coding, just get the site up and running and deployed on Netlify. Take the two days to do this.
14
+
15
+
Add some extra posts to the site if you have spare time and can't wait until Days 3 - 4.

## Days 3 - 4:
19
+
20
+
Play time!
21
+
22
+
Build up your site over the remaining two days. You have the building blocks with static images and pages - now build!
23
+
24
+
- Add posts to bulk out your site.
25
+
- Create another few static pages. Eg: Privacy Policy; Terms and Conditions; Related Links
26
+
- Experiment with the HTML/CSS.
27
+
- Browse to [http://www.pelicanthemes.com/](http://www.pelicanthemes.com/) and pick a new theme! We use [Flex](https://github.com/alexandrevicenzi/Flex/tree/b3bd59002a3e85803332c35702d90e1e19ef39b6) on [PyBites](https://pybit.es).
28
+
- Visit the [Pelican docs](http://docs.getpelican.com/en/stable/index.html) and take a look at the [Pelican Themes](http://docs.getpelican.com/en/stable/pelican-themes.html) documentation to install the new theme you've selected.
29
+
- Customise and make it your own.
30
+
31
+
Note: Remember to keep your repository up to date on GitHub to allow Netlify to keep auto-building/updating.
