Use SSI for header/footer/menu segments and write about 5 lines of bash and you've got all the site generator you need, too, and you can run your "generator" on basically any unixy machine without installing anything.
I find writing raw HTML for basic documents to be very fast and easy with a modern editor with hinting/autocomplete. Not any slower than Markdown, really.
- lelanthran 4y agoI wrote a bash script (https://gist.github.com/lelanthran/2634fc2508c93a437ba5ca511fafa99d https://gist.github.com/lelanthran/2634fc2508c93a437ba5ca511...) that lets me very simply add new posts to my blog. For my actual blog I reversed the order that the first are processed. Looks okay, I think, just short on functionality (no I Tractivity). https://www.lelanthran.com https://www.lelanthran.com ... feedback welcome.
