A lot of musicians are looking for better, more resilient platforms for selling and distributing their work. Faircamp may be a good solution.

I'm a fan of static site generators, but unless I'm missing something, this won't replace the most important part of Bandcamp: a platform for selling music.

@ono Yeah, fair point. It's more geared towards patron support and donation prompts, but it does support things like redeemable codes, which could be paired with some kind of recurring donation system.

It does make me wonder what it would take to build in a checkout system, and whether that goes way beyond what a static site can handle.
