What's the difference with http://staticsitegenerators.net http://staticsitegenerators.net ? Why another one ?
- dminor 12y agoThe same might be said for the static site generators themselves :)
- sophacles 12y agoIt's the new thing. The recent static site generator explosion left the "market" saturated and overwhelming. More and more people looking to get eyeballs on their work have eschewed the notion of "I'll make an SSG", and instead are saying "I'll make an SSG comparator". However, as this is already becoming a thing, I think I'll spend the holiday weekend creating a site to help you choose an SSG comparator - get ahead of the curve and all.
- bobfunk 12y agoStaticGen.com has actually been around longer, we just recently relaunched it. I was thinking of just letting it lapse, but after using staticsitegenerators.net myself, I found I wanted a list that was a bit more strict, in the sense of not including anything that's not a static site generator (flat file CMSs like Kirby or even hosting services like BitBalloon or Fjords). Also wanted some more details on the list, and there's a lot of potential to do more with a site like this in the future: more meaningful comparisons, guides to picking the right static site generator, etc... Apart from that it was also just fun to redo the site with Middleman :)
