        @bearmine Not that I make many webpages, but I lean static now more than ever - unless there needs to be some actual dynamic content, and even then I'd explore middle ground. That said most of my stuff in the past few years has been small enough to be handcrafted, without static page generators.

        Wordpress, or any other dynamic system, always has the added risk of extra vulnerabilities, which forces to perpetually update them, which in turn can bring new ones.

          @doqunbop I’m looking to make a new blog/site and periodically post things. I’d rather not have to do it all by hand.

              @bearmine How do you feel about MkDocs for whatever you need? More aimed at documentation, but maybe it can fit into your workflow?

                @bearmine Makes sense, I still think static generation covers blogging needs, as you set off the pipeline when you add a new post, no need for it to have visitor-dynamic content, unless you want comments specifically - but once again vulnerability concerns vs the actual value of the feature.

                    @bearmine Oh! It's a Markdown-based static site generator - https://www.mkdocs.org

                    Material for MkDocs I think is almost universally the theme I see in use - https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/

                      @SeanMP

                      This might be a good way to get something up and running real quick. Thanks

                      Edit: and markdown is flexible enough that I could probably easily migrate stuff later if I needed to.
