Lidi za kódem

A simple static landing page for the Lidi za kódem podcast, built with Astro and prepared for deployment to GitHub Pages.

The website is intended to be published at https://lidizakodem.cz/.

Local Development

Install dependencies and start the development server:

npm install
npm run dev

Create a production build:

npm run build

The static build output is generated in the dist directory. To preview the production build locally:

npm run preview

Editing Content

The main configuration file is src/data/site.ts.

Use it to update:

• podcast platform links in listenLinks,
• the RSS feed URL in rss.url,
• the contact email in email,
• social links in author.socialLinks,
• the canonical URL in canonicalUrl,
• logo, favicon, and Open Graph image paths in assets.

Logo, favicon, Open Graph image, and platform icons are stored in public/ and public/icons/.

Used assets:

• website logo: public/logo.png
• favicon: public/favicon.png
• sharing image: public/og-image.png
• platform icons: public/icons/*.png
• GitHub Pages custom domain file: public/CNAME

To replace assets, either overwrite the existing files or update their paths in src/data/site.ts.

Deployment to GitHub Pages

The deployment workflow is defined in .github/workflows/deploy.yml. It runs on every push to the main branch, builds the Astro site, uploads the static artifact, and deploys it to GitHub Pages.

No Cloudflare account or GitHub Secrets are required for this deployment path.

GitHub Pages Settings

In the GitHub repository:

1. Open Settings > Pages.
2. Under Build and deployment, set Source to GitHub Actions.
3. Under Custom domain, set lidizakodem.cz.
4. After DNS validation succeeds, enable Enforce HTTPS.

The file public/CNAME contains lidizakodem.cz, so the built site artifact also includes the custom domain declaration.

DNS Records

The domain is currently managed through Seznam Email Profi DNS. Keep the existing mail-related DNS records, especially MX, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC.

Add these records for the root domain:

@  A  185.199.108.153
@  A  185.199.109.153
@  A  185.199.110.153
@  A  185.199.111.153

Optional IPv6 records:

@  AAAA  2606:50c0:8000::153
@  AAAA  2606:50c0:8001::153
@  AAAA  2606:50c0:8002::153
@  AAAA  2606:50c0:8003::153

Add this record for the www subdomain:

www  CNAME  pseckar.github.io

Do not change the domain nameservers when using GitHub Pages with these DNS records.

Prepared for Later

The latest episode section is not displayed yet. src/data/site.ts contains a prepared latestEpisode value so the section can be added later without restructuring the rest of the page.
