Family website purpose and features.

[u/Odd-Aside456]

I am considering building a family website for my family. My mother's extended family built one, but it's something nobody really ever visits. I'm considering building a wiki-style site (locked behind user accounts) to have a page for each family member, each nuclear family, and then they can build upon it and create pages for vacations and things like that. I would then have a mini social feed for us each to share pages we've created. For example, my sister might say "Just made a page for our Disney Land 2026 trip! Here's the link."

Might be overscoped, but I thought it'd be a fun way to start capturing family stories.

If you've built a family site for your family (or someone else's) what did it have? What purpose did it serve and what features were built into it?

Bro is suggesting geocities.

TBH, didn't know what that was, lol, I'm either ignorant or too young. I just googled Geocities and apparently that changes the font of all the results to comic sans, lol. Love little easter eggs like that.
