Hi,

I’m interested in setting up a small static-site-generator site. Looked at 11ty recently and feel pretty uncomfortable with the amount of javascript and “funny language” churn just to make some html happen.

Do you know of any alternative that’s simpler / easier / less complicated dependencies? Or do you have an approach to 11ty that you think I should try?

Thanks in advance for any input, it’s appreciated!

    Thank you for the advice! I’ll give webc a look before I check out the alternative platforms.

    I don’t know or really want to learn anything other than html/css or markdown. The site I’m trying to migrate was raw html/css, and I liked it well enough even though the shortcomings (and argument for template stuff) is very obvious.

      Using the template syntax you can start by copy/pasting the site to be migrated, and then inject sections that render using markdown syntax.
