This! I wrote my personal website [1] a few days ago (after it was blank for years) and went for concrete css [2] and plain HTML together with some Go code to serve the files. I set up a server on Hetzner Cloud [3] and my site was up within minutes using Traefik to get a SSL certificate from Letsencrypt. All in all it took me about 2 hours. If you start to play around with a CMS it can take you days if not weeks. Just write plain HTML, boring but sometimes very efficent.

Edit: Bonus! I did the same for my brothers website: https://schnittfest.gmbh/ https://schnittfest.gmbh/ Just if you're curious.
- qnsi 6y agoI heard in a jazz bar that you can host static sites for free at Zeit and use plain css for grid now, but I am unable to verify the rumours as my work limits Internet only to hackernews
- marvinblum 6y agoSure, but I'm on Hetzner anyways for different reasons. I didn't say it's ideal, just that it's simpler to write HTML+CSS sometimes. How you serve the files doesn't matter.
- qnsi 6y agoCool. I am sometimes posting for lurkers maybe someone gets inspiration
- lvncelot 6y agotcp over hackernews comments?
