FirebaseNode.jsCloud Functions

Static HTML, a Node.js build script, Firebase Hosting. A custom CMS backed by Firestore lets me edit in the browser and publish with one click — no local build needed.

Architecture

Firebase Hosting — static serving, cleanUrls, HSTS
Cloud Functions — publishSite renders HTML/XML from Firestore and deploys via the Hosting REST API; getAnalytics proxies GA4
Firestore — stores projects, writing, books, bio, and file hashes
Admin CMS — Google Sign-In, live editor, one-click publish
Analytics — 7-day totals, top pages, device breakdown in the admin panel
