Re: WEB400 Digest, Vol 19, Issue 46

Thanks Richard. I'd seen your earlier posts about this one but didn't consider it because its focus on documentation wasn't what I was primarily looking for. I'll take a look.

I'm taking a look at Grav (https://getgrav.org/) right now and it seems to have some promise.

One of my concerns of course is how long will a tool be around. I found a highly recommended one the other day that looked fabulous until I decided to look at the user forum and see how active it was and apart from "is anything happening" type posts there had been nothing in over 12 months - but the download site was still active.

MkDocs maybe ?

You would need to learn a little markdown syntax.

You can run the server live or simply auto-compile to a static site structure.

Works on IBMi and probably Mac as well.

subject: [WEB400] Recommendations for Simple CMS and/or Static site
generator

I need to do some major work on my web site which is currently all static HTML.

Looking for a simple CMS or static site generator. CMS would have to work on IBM i, static generator I would like to run on my Mac.

Prefer Python or PHP as the code base - but I guess I have to get into node.js at some time.

Please DON'T tell me how easy and powerful Wordpress is - I have experience with it and I hate it. Drupal was better but both are total overkill for what i need.
