I have a friend that wants to use Makefiles as a build system for his website, C macros as the templating engine for the HTML, and a JS->C library so his WebAssembly C can access the DOM. Hence, he wants to write his web apps in C lol! Sorry, the mentioning of Makefiles brought that back. In any case, you might be right, but it's a very simple website and Jekyll is easier. I'll cross the bridge of incompatibility when I come to it. Thanks for the heads up though!

Websites in C are alright, but this sounds like a crazy setup. In my case, there is no C and the makefile does only "cat header.html $^ footer.html > $@"
