Pretty cool. We were recently discussing how a service like this could exist. Excited to try it out.

One suggestion - on the Signup page, you ask for a lot of permissions right away from Github. I think it would be better if you just collected profile/email address and then when I started exploring a little more and working to get my first site deployed, only then ask for the additional permissions.

Thanks!

Signup permissions is definitely something we need to work on more. We optimized them at the beginning to give people the best experience possible, but we'll definitely iterate to allow using Netlify with less permissions. We just need to find the right workflow to still keep it as simple and powerful as possible.

Just to follow up. I have a hugo site that has a pretty custom directory layout. I managed to sign up and get it provisioned with letsencrypt already. Definitely cool.
