My First Static Page

The simplest page we can build in Flow requires no interaction to any server. This is suitable for static resources which contain all their own data, such as a Verse of the Day or a very simple Cafeteria Menu for the week.

We will use Flow as the web server, and build our page in the frontend.

Log in to your Flow instance and open the Resources section from the left hand menu.

In this screenshot, we have already specific an identity and a collection for this page. A resource collection is an arbitrary identifier used to group a set of resources which make up a page - CSS, scripts, images and HTML documents, for instance. Use this to reduce the likelihood that your Flow server will accumulate irrelevant pieces of content which are no longer referenced.

A resource is often an image, or other file (including .HTML or .CSS). In this case, use the Upload File functionality at this point of resource creation. Otherwise, Save your resource. You will set its literal content as an edit.

<html> <body> <div>Hello, world!</div> </body> </html>

Now we'll set our literal content. This is done inside the Resource Collection, inside the Resource. Use the live HTML preview to help construct your code.
