The author suggests using a visual html editor and copying any code you need for layout, navigation, etc. You can't deny that's infinitely easier than rolling your own SSG and using markdown.
- chownie 6y agoAh, well in that case the note about layers of abstraction don't really apply very well. A full WYSIW(YG/YM) editor is not going to generate HTML you actually want to read or write. Otherwise we'd all be making sites in Microsoft Word given its ubiquity! :D
- nix0n 6y agoThe HTML that is generated by Seamonkey Composer is reasonably editable as plain source. (Actually it is much more pleasant than using exclusively Notepad, because the auto-indentation is reasonable.) However, Microsoft Word generates extremely bad HTML. Don't use it.
- dsego 6y agoLike the div soup react (or any other js framework) generates is any better. In any case, I don't understand the need for clean HTML if I don't have to read or write it. Which is supposedly true if I'm going to be using a wysiwyg editor or you know a web browser to read the actual content of the damn page and not its markup.
