Thank you for sharing the link to the source code. My simple site generator is based on my wife's project makesite.py[1]. In fact, I used her site generator for a few years before I went all in on Common Lisp for my personal projects. Then I reimplemented makesite.py in Common Lisp.

I ended up using the developer-focused https://github.com/sunainapai/makesite , but I heard Hugo and Jekyll have plenty of themes that I assume can be dropped in. Good luck!
