I'm using soupault right now to make a simple company wiki (under a dozen pages). I like how it's HTML-first and easily customizable, compared to other static site generators that come with too many bells and whistles. Although now I have to make my own image compression script...
Also, fun fact: soupault is written in OCaml, which apparently has a really nice library for HTML manipulation: https://github.com/aantron/lambdasoup
> 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?
