Crayon
Thirty-one years after it invented the personalized front page, CRAYON relaunches - rebuilt for an age that has too much news instead of too little. Your 1995 paper is still here, and your old password still works.
What we found
- It sends none of the six security headers we check.
- It has terms of service, but we found no privacy policy.
- The page is missing Twitter card tags.
- Built with htmx and Python, the site is hosted on Amazon.com in the United States, with a domain registered in 1996.
Built with: 6 technologies

- Performance comes from one render on 11 November 2026 and will vary between visits.
How we know
FirstSited records what new websites are built with, usually within a day of going live. Most we find ourselves, by watching public internet infrastructure for brand-new sites; the rest come from Product Hunt, Hacker News and PeerPush. We checked this one in full: its tech stack, DNS, security headers and page basics. This page is what we saw on 11 November 2026; the live site may have changed since.
Every technology below links to its own page: which other new sites launched with it. Watch any of them and get every new site that uses it as it goes live, from £15 a month.
