+This website is now up on GitHub! As announced before we have made the move to allow public contributions from the community.
+<!-- excerpt -->
+This milestone switches hosting to use [Github Pages](https://pages.github.com).
+
+If you want to contribute [head over to the repository](https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libimobiledevice.org).
+It contains all the sources to generate this website and any changes are deployed upon pushing it to the master branch.
+
+*Fork it*, *change it* and send a *pull request*.
+
+A brief technology outline:
+
+* Static website generated using [Cecil](https://cecil.app/)
+* [Twig](https://twig.symfony.com/) HTML templates using [Bootstrap](https://getbootstrap.com/)
+* Responsive design optimized for mobile, tablet and desktop
+* SASS based styles and optimized assets pipeline
+* Icons by [Font Awesome](https://fontawesome.com/)
+* Syntax highlighting by [Prism](https://github.com/PrismJS/prism/)
+* Dynamic content based on GitHub API data
+* Automatically deployed using a [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/features/actions) workflow for [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com)
+* Hero animation using CSS and SVG image
+* Various CSS animations by [animate-sass](https://github.com/tgdev/animate-sass/)
+
+Some areas that need work:
+
+* Migrate more content from templates into markdown files
+* Provide more examples and usage guides
+* Improve frequently asked questions and other sections
+* Automate generation of status page from external data
+
+... and much more, looking forward to see great improvements from the community!
+
+I really hope you guys enjoy the effort.
+
+Next up are some releases and refactoring.
