#82What are people using for hosting? I've thought about using github pages, but css ended up being severely limited.
GitLab Pages https://pages.gitlab.io/ it also supports private repos and nearly every static site generator through gitlab ci

#83For a client I built a custom one (~150loc) that uses react templates and builds files from markdown on contentful. By using react templates, the static website and frontend code can be written in the same manner and our designer can start with something then hand it off to our frontend eng without fuzz. The designer wanted to learn react so she's technical enough to write jsx (which might not be the case for everyone).
Ping me if we should see about OSS.

well, if you are happy with it, stick with Dreamweaver. Markdown is not for layouting, it's more for writing and reading the source code without hurting your eyes ;)

OK, this list rocks! Thanks for sharing it.
Btw, on LibHunt you can compare the projects by dev activity as well - https://selfhosted.libhunt.com/categories/1986-static-site-g...
Re: Static Website Generators
#87I've wanted to make a static site generator generator for a while. Run the script and out comes another script with a wicked cool name that uses one of the many markup options, header formats, and templating engines (either manually or randomly selected). Somebody, please make this.
I probably failed to understand what you described but recently found out about Nikola[1] while looking for publishing solution supporting Org mode. It does support multiple input formats and at least Jinja2 and Mako for templating: - https://getnikola.com/handbook.html#supported-input-formats 1. https://getnikola.com/
Hakyll supports anything that pandoc supports, so it does both org mode and markdown :-)
Re: Static Website Generators
#88Have really wanted to look at making WP into a static site generator. Have too many clients using WP that could be using it as a static site but won't move away from it... So the admin backend / familiar publishing interface but generating it out to something that could be dumped into S3z
Some people have done variations of it but not well or easy. Is easy enough to trap events that should trigger page regeneration. Just haven't taken enough time yet.
The AWS CLI has extremely amazing performance, having something that could leverage that kind of multithreading for publishing would be great. Especially for the initial site publish.
If anyone is interested in working on this project or taking it on (I'm happy to contribute ideas and/or money) feel free to reach out. mike503 at gmail.

#89Jekyll has the significant advantage of support Asciidoc out of the box as Asciidoctor is written in Ruby. We really need alternative asciidoc implementations.

Please note that asciidoctor already is an alternative implementation. The original asciidoc tool (http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/index.html) is written in python.
Both, the original and asciidoctor, offer a CLI tool to convert asciidoc to different formats (and there is always pandoc). Additionally, asciidoctor aims to integrate with JVM languages courtesy of JRuby. So you have multiple implementations callable (in one way or another) from any language imaginable.
