I’m a huge fan of static site generators, nothing faster, can host it on a calculator, lol.

My usual ones are purely self-made, but I use Nikola on one of my things. There are a LOT of them though since they are so easy to build.

Jekyll is very popular, also because the Github integration. I wish Github would make it possible to have the same for other static site generators as it is kinda unfair to all the Jekyll alternatives.

What I do not like about Jekyll is it’s strict concept about being a blogging tool, with support for normal pages as well. I little bit more freedom would be nice.

I will always go for static site generators, but if you want something dynamic I would go for Ghost. It’s like a new and much improved Wordpress
