WordPress plugin hole puts '2M websites' at risk
> It is not actually that hard to run Wordpress securely. Stick to supported plugins and themes, and install security patches quickly when they are released.
Depending on your site's functionality, it may also be possible to run a static WP site:
* https://wordpress.org/plugins/simply-static/
* https://wp2static.com
You do all your regular updates via the CMS, but, instead of putting the dynamic site on the public Internet, you generate static files and point your public web server's HTML rootdir at those.

What am I missing? GrapesJS + Cloudflare = Static website for the cost of a domain? Seems too good to be true.
Also, for a bit more complex although richer in features workflow, you might try Wordpress with the Block Editor (or any page builder like Elementor) and the [WP2Static](https://github.com/WP2Static/wp2static) plugin, which allows you to turn a Wordpress site into a static one!

Wordpress.org website creation and hosting
The closest "free" option I can think of is Oracle Cloud, but /r/oraclecloud shows plenty of horror stories in registration and maintaining an instance. If you don't actually need interactive features, WP2Static on your local instance to be deployed to Cloudflare Pages might work.

WordPress sites getting hacked ‘within seconds’ of TLS certificates being issued
Depending on the site, ask yourself "How dynamic does it actually have to be?". Perhaps using the GUI to update the content, and then creating static files and serving those may be an option:

Show HN: Pages CMS – A CMS for GitHub
Following one of the comments in this thread I reviewed two other products in this space - https://www.staticcms.org/ and https://decapcms.org/ - and it looks like the webpages are almost a direct copy of one another, one in dark mode and one in light mode.
I'm a technical product marketer, and I find these type of landing page copying amusing to no end.

Casidoo on TinaCMS
Did you consider https://decapcms.org/ (previously Netlify CMS)? I'm surprised it never really caught on as it seems a good fit for most small Markdown based sites. Looks like Smashing Magazine was using it before they moved to Tina CMS (https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2020/01/migration-from-word...).

The theory versus the practice of “static websites”
Products like [decap CMS](https://github.com/decaporg/decap-cms) try to bridge that gap, but I agree that this space needs to be further developed. In fact I think there needs to be a bunch more work to allow mere mortals to use version control and branch workflows in day to day work.

How to build a website without frameworks and tons of libraries
I've thought of something similar! A git-based flow for a friend's static portfolio site, where he can make text edits and upload images, and the site builds that content with HTML templates.
Not sure how the GitHub markdown editor would feel for the user. It might be really great, even for uploading images.
I was imagining a static admin page, WYSIWYG, that makes git pushes on submit. These were the headless CMSs that seem to be able to accomplish that:
https://www.siteleaf.com/
https://decapcms.org/
And not git based, but similar idea: https://editable.website/
And this is what the admin edit page usually looks like: https://quick-edit-demo.vercel.app/admin/index.html#/collect...
But was taking a bit of work to configure.

Looking for a statically deployed site-builder / CMS that stores content in GitHub
Since I made my post, I've also discovered Decap CMS. This looks fairly close to what I was looking for - it deploys as a static SPA alongside the site on a /admin route, allows login with Github (and several other platforms), and builds the site using a choice of static site generator like Gatsby/Hugo/Jekyll etc. The templates are relatively rigid by default though - page layouts are defined up front, and to add a page with a different layout you need to manually add some files to the repo. It seems like there's a way to work around this and add flexibility, but it needs a bit of custom React development. It seems like this might be worth the time investment for me though, since it's the closest thing I've found to what I need so far.
