(I am not a designer so I am looking for something simple but decently designed):For a static single page website I need a template that displays some text but that's easy to maintain and doesn't ask me to install either weird build systems, 5 GB of node_modules or generators. I am fine editing HTML as text or to do it in markdown. I'd just prefer not to have to build the basic setup myself (I could slap some bootstrap stuff together but I'd like to focus on writing the text).No need to google (I can do that myself) just a question f one of you folks might have experience with something.

@tante and/or Jekyll (what GitHub pages use). It's easy to set up really.

@tante how about gohugo.io? Just one simpl binary that generates static pages from markdown. Good template support, low footprint...

@tante May I introduce you to sitebash, the static site generator that is just one bash script of about 100 lines and is easily adaptible to whatever you want it to do?https://github.com/selfawaresoup/sitebashWe use it for https://blog.strangeobject.space

@tante I use hugo. There are a lot of themes available a lot of them for a single static page https://themes.gohugo.io/It is fairly easy to set up, just a single binary to download (or you use a package manager).There is a quickstart in the docs (https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/).I use a small CI pipeline to automatically deploy but you can also justa) write on your local computer, manually copy to the server once you are doneb) write directly on the server and compile there <- I did this for years

@tante @kissane mentioned she just build one with https://blot.im/ which turns a folder into a blog, files in the folder automatically become blog posts. Haven't tried it but I love the concept.

@tante Lol, well, I use cpanel text editor to edit the html directly and this miserable excuse for a website is the result: www.liquid-reign.com

@evemassacre @kissane Sounds neat but I don't want to expose people to using a US servce for the whole cookie/GDPR shebang.

@tante There’s a bunch of nice HTML-themes for Pandoc, which is my go-to for cases of “I have this text and want to have basic typesetting.”Random list of themes: https://github.com/ryangrose/easy-pandoc-templatesFor a very minimal, vanilla-html-but-improve-readability there’s this one https://github.com/hirnsalat/html-oidaOtherwise, I guess, any ready-made theme for any of the larger CSS frameworks (bootstrap, bulma, tailwind+typography, …) should do. But I guess that’s what you’re referencing to anyway, right?

@tante I like Zola. It is lightweight and really fast. The Template-Engine Tera is really great.https://github.com/getzola/zola

@mawhrin I really mostly care about existing templates to put text in. I don't see that page getting many updates.

@tante Maybe a classless css framework is enough, providing better default styles for basic html tags? Just include the CSS file from a CDN, write plain html, get a clean, responsive site. E.g. https://classless.de, but there are many more: https://css-tricks.com/no-class-css-frameworks + https://github.com/dbohdan/classless-css
