You might like primo.so then - makes a static sure you can hand off to anyone & it’s open source.

not yet, that's one of the next things we're working on.

The problem you're describing is exactly why I'm working on https://primo.so.

WordPress makes content editing easier, but damages the developer experience. So devs reach for JS frameworks in search of more productivity, but then the content editing experience suffers.

I found the solution was to embed a code editor in the CMS itself. As strange as it sounds, removing the distance between the content and code means that devs can build and modify components and whole sites (which are made of both) in a tenth of the time while giving content editors the page-building powers they love.

SvelteKit would be a breath of fresh air.

Agree, but think there’s potential for improved typing speed on desktop. I just learned about this new keyboard (called CharaChorder) that lets you type 300WPM+ by pressing multiple multi-directional keys at once (ie “chording” keys). Could definitely see it taking off with professionals who are bottlenecked by typing speed.

That same thinking is what led me to build [Primo](https://github.com/primodotso/primo) - a SSG in a desktop/server CMS. It’s the only thing me or anyone I know who’s uses it uses to build normal websites anymore bc it’s so much faster to get a site up and easier to write code/content.

Check out Primo. Still in Alpha but very promising for that use-case.
