Soupault: A static website management tool
Perhaps you want own your domain and website setup.
Perhaps you don't have time to be a server admin keeping a public facing CMS up to date and secure.
https://getpublii.com runs on any cheap shared hosting and is zero maintenance. Your website will also be an easy to backup directory on your computer.
Those have complicated stacks that likely won't serve the person that can't grasp a CLI SSG.
https://getpublii.com has a simple GUI and is just a directory on your computer (inside the Dropbox directory for crude backup?).

The theory versus the practice of “static websites”
I haven't used it, but Publii[0] might be along the lines of what you're thinking of. I ran across it in a previous HN discussion, and it seems to be static site generator with a pretty user-friendly graphical interface.

Publii – CMS with SSG
Netlify CMS is nice, and despite the name it works completely independenly of using Netlify as the host: https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/intro/ I won't lie though it is very akward to setup and use if you aren't using Netlify--documentation is extremely thin, and it's a beta phase feature to selfhost. But it is a really nice and simple editor view that non-technical people could use. This is where the (very thin) documentation for it starts: https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/beta-features/#working-with-...
Another good one is Jekyll Admin: https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll-admin It's not as nice as wordpress but gets the job done for a basic markdown focused site. Selfhosting it is a lot easier and more documented than Netlify CMS.
