You need to find a hosting provider for you content. If your site is static then you can look at using Cloudflare Pages for it
My site is CF hosted. I want to put some readable html into it - and do it based on being logged onto CF.
The only way to host content on Cloudflare is with Cloudflare pages for static sites which sounds like it will work for you.
I'm good with C/C++ and better with assembly for > 10 ISAs. I've written/maintained mainframe OS internals, written a bit of CPU-implementing microcode, written an RTOS for ARM Cortex-M series, and much more.
But I'm missing some web basics--
What is / or how to get to CF terminal?
I want to type "hmtown.com" (it's CF-hosted) into a browser and see stuff I have written. I know enough html to get started. My site will be read-only.
But how do I get my html into hmtown.com?
There is no "Cloudflare terminal"
You can host static content using Cloudflare Pages
You can upload your static content there
And then set up your access from your domain
Deploy with Cloudflare Pages
To deploy your site to Pages:
Log in to the Cloudflare dashboard and select your account.
In Account Home, select Workers & Pages > Create application > Pages > Connect to Git.
BUT...I don't see "Create application".
Any hints?
When you click on the Workers & Pages tab, you don't see "Create Application" in the top middle right?
Here's a magic link: https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/workers-and-pages/create/pages
or https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/pages/new/provider/github directly to new Github project
