I’m looking for a tool to generate a simple personal website (like an online business card) to self host. Preferably a static site generator.
I’m now using Hugo, but it does too much for me and changes too often. (I can’t update my current page, because the template is no longer arond)
Now there’s a radical idea. Might actually do this xD
And then host it on https://neocities.org/
You don’t even need to learn HTML to do it. Any word processor will ‘save as HTML,’ but the markup should be straightforward enough for anyone considering selfhosting. CSS can be a real rabbit hole, but browser default styles aren’t awful.
I don’t think there is really any learning curve to “learning HTML” if you are not trying to do anything funky and you just want a simple static website that functions, like OP said, “like a business card”. You may as well just type it out yourself. If you’ve never written HTML before just look at w3schools.
