There definitely are more than a few people who hand code the HTML for their sites. Often, it's people who need something simple -- no scripting, no database back end, none of that stuff. Just HTML and maybe some simple CSS.
I know a couple of people who build their (infrequently updated) sites using Markdown, pandoc, a custom HTML template, and a simple shell script.
- jzombie 3y agoYeah, Markdown + a custom template is the approach that I've recently been taking, though using Python instead of the shell script (but the shell script would be more interesting, now that I think about it).
- devonnull 3y agoThe shell scripts used by the people I know are pretty simple, encapsulating the string of pandoc commands and pointing to an HTML template. Nothing fancy -- just a convenience when running a tool that they don't use very often.
