Micro-site factory
The micro-site factory is the production system behind operator site rescue and future product launches. It is not a website builder — it is an agent-assisted pipeline that turns operator information into live, fast, beautiful single-page sites.
How it works
Input
- Operator photos (from Telegram, WhatsApp, or in-person)
- Basic info: what they offer, pricing, location, contact
- Language: Spanish primary, English translation by agent
Processing
- Agent generates HTML from a template library
- Agent writes bilingual copy from operator input
- Agent selects and crops best photos
- Agent generates WhatsApp deep link with pre-filled message
- Agent validates mobile rendering and load time
Output
- Single HTML file, self-contained or with minimal assets
- Hosted on GitHub Pages (free, fast CDN)
- Custom domain optional ($10-15/year)
- WhatsApp Business quick-reply pack as companion deliverable
Template library
Build 4-5 base templates covering common operator types:
- Tour operator — hero photo, experience description, pricing table, seasonal info, WhatsApp CTA
- Accommodation — room gallery, amenities, location map, booking CTA
- Restaurant/cafe — menu highlights, atmosphere photos, hours, directions
- Experience provider — what you'll do, what's included, difficulty level, group size, CTA
- Multi-service — operator offering tours + stays + food as a package
Design standards
Every site from the factory follows Shane's design taste:
- Loads in under 2 seconds
- Mobile-first (most tourists browse on phone)
- Clear hierarchy: what → why → how much → book now
- No stock photos — real operator photos only
- Bilingual without toggle complexity (Spanish sections + English sections)
- WhatsApp as primary CTA, not a form
Agent automation depth
The factory should eventually run with minimal human input:
- Operator sends photos and info via WhatsApp or Telegram
- Agent drafts site and copy
- Shane reviews and approves (5 minutes)
- Agent deploys to GitHub Pages
- Agent sends operator the live link
Relationship to Shanepedia
The factory is a child project. Its templates, deployment scripts, and client list should be tracked as a project lane under Shanepedia. Operator research and learnings flow back into the wiki.
