This is very interesting write up. Kudos for the author for completing it and showing the whole process. Nevertheless, coding skills were still necessary.<p>Right now I'm working on a tool to achieve such kind of automation of a website, but without code. Mostly without the glitch part from the post. Working on any kind of hosting, no matter what underlying technology - WordPress, GH pages, whatever. With interface similar to IFTTT where you connect 3rd party apps to a website to populate content - like in the example from the post - data from Instagram on the website. Or data from Slack bot on website (D&D example).
UX for this project is not an easy stuff. Also, we are thinking what services are most important to be on the platform at the very beginning. We would love to hear any kind of feedback. If you are interested find my email in my bio.
