For sure everyone have his favorite way of doing things and what seemed obvious for some will look strange for others.
As I tested myself several SSG, I (as many it seems !) thought « Well, none fit my needs so let’s make one »
My problem was that I need an interface for the final clients, which are no tech at all, to be able to edit content.
Solutions like Hugo are not possible as it would means install it on a computer at the client office, and make him/her understand how to deploy. No go.
As the post states, they would also have to learn some stuff. Even more no go.
So for those case, the solution is to use a CMS like Wordpress. Which I don’t want.
So I built my own, using the best of both worlds.
For the backoffice, for managing content, a PHP/MySQL classic, with a media gallery and a tinyMce. Pages are in categories which can have subcategories and pages, as deep as you want.
Each page must have a template.
A preview button (which is the key) and an export site button.
And that’s all.
Of course, it only suits my needs (as me or some clients like web agencies will be in charge of the templating) and have no means of going public, so don’t fit what OP was looking for.
But it works, it was a two days job to create, and as it’s all mine, I can add any functionality I want.
