 We keep the [uppyjs.io](http://uppyjs.io) website in `./website` for so it's easy to keep docs & code in sync as we're still iterating at high velocity. For those reading this screaming murder, [HashiCorp does this](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/tree/master/website) for all their projects, and it's working well for them on a scale vastly more impressive than :dog:'s.
 
-The site is built with [Hexo](http://hexo.io/), and Travis automatically deploys this onto GitHub Pages (it overwrites the [`gh-pages`](https://github.com/transloadit/uppy/tree/gh-pages) branch at every deploy).

+Even though bundled in this repo, the website is regarded as a separate project. So it has its own `package.json` and we aim keep the surface where the two projects interface as small as possible. [`./website/update.js`](website/update.js) is called during website builds to inject the Uppy knowledge into the site.
 
-`./website/update.js` is called during website builds to inject the Uppy versions & filesizes into the documentation. `website` in an independent folder (with e.g. its own package.json) and so it cannot rely on anything from the root project directly. `update.js` is the bridge that explicitly makes information available by injecting it into the website.
 
 It's recommended to exclude `./website/public/` from your editor if you want efficient searches.
