@arabiccola @FunkyLarma yeah, after working with SSG’s there is no way I would go back to Wordpress. #SSGs #Wordpress #WebDevelopment

And static sites maintainers, too! In a couple of hours at #38C3, @jak2k helped me solve issues with my #11ty config that have been driving me crazy for weeks!

Long live the static-first, whimsical, indie, passionate #Web! 💕

I am having a hard time coding some things in #Eleventy, especially because I do not know #JavaScript and I hate it… Would anyone at #38C3 be interested in helping me? #11ty #help

I’m planning to create my first @eleventy site soon and I’m already wondering which template language to use. Given that #Eleventy supports several formats, there’s a minor #ParadoxOfChoice at play here. I’ll probably just go with #Nunjucks for its flexibility.

We're back to my recurring nightmare of making it easy for a non-technical client to edit a static website generated using #Hugo.

Are there any good solutions? Or am I going to end up writing my own solution after many painful hours with other people's janky solutions?

If you know of a non-technical user successfully editing a static website, how are they doing it?

EDIT: I'll only use open source solutions I can self-host, but happy to hear about proprietary options.

Following up on something Dan Hon mentioned in his newsletter, about Bezos trying to leverage AWS into a dependency for newspapers, I remembered reading about NPR's Python driven static site generator for news sites, and it's still there, but in Node (aw, but I like Flask)
