I have a personal blog that I occasionally update to write up projects I do. https://biotinker.dev/ https://biotinker.dev/ All it is is just hand-written HTML from a text editor. No fancy features aside from auto-closing tags when I open them. A few lines of CSS that just get pasted on the top of each page. A lot of the pages out there today aren't terribly more complex than this- just serving some text and photos- with the occasional form. I'm unconvinced that I could have made that website any faster using any sort of no-code tool (99% of the time is spent writing the content). Obviously plenty of websites require more than that, but mine doesn't, and looking at this article, it doesn't either. Writing HTML doesn't suck for these simple sites unless you make it suck- it shouldn't be "slow and boring" to write the CSS for something like the website posted here because it's something that should be done once, gives you what you want for the page, and then it's done. Maybe the author is talking more about building some business's website rather than their own, but I don't see the problem.
