primo VS Contao

> Why is are all static site generators (that I am aware of) are CLI? What prevent simplistic drag and drop GUI/WYSIWYG that generates those clean static files?

Check:

- Tina CMS: https://tina.io/

- Primo CMS: https://primocms.org/

Anyway, you seem to be holding the wrong end of the stick. Static generation is the easy part, what you're looking for is a subset that falls under the CMS umbrella, just search for `CMS+SSG` you'll find a diverse set of solutions.

You can also setup any generic Headless CMS to trigger generation for a static site. Why would someone build a full fledged CMS and limit it to a niche market inside a niche?

The easiest thing would probably be Primo, you’ll just have to copy+paste your code in & write some Svelte to set up the content fields.

Check out Primo - it would let you hand the site off to a client so they could edit it & publish changes themselves and just rope you back in to make code updates

Check out Primo - it’s free & open source and they’ll be able to edit it afterwards easily.

Check out Primo it’s FOSS & easy for nontechnical content editors, but you won’t be able to use Hugo with it

Another usecase are Framework based CMS System. Beside Drupal, Typo3 using example Symfony components, still are not Full Stack Symfony and don't use Symfony based folder structure and are so very different then using Symfony Full Stack based CMS. In this area other CMS like Sulu, Bolt, .. are placed which do not hide Symfony Full Stack and are more for the web applications which are not typical just a Website but has application based component in it which can be build with the Symfony components and ecosystem. This CMS are also mostly more version control friendly as most configurations are inside Code and not inside Database and the CMS admin concentrate on Content Management and configure the System itself. Another CMS which is more and more migrating Full Stack Symfony is Contao CMS, which definitly should not be forgotten.

If you're familiar with Symfony, you could also check out Contao. I never really used it, though, because it's a bit too complex for me. But in theory, you can use most libraries for Symfony there.

Maybe you have a look at CMS Conato: https://contao.org/
