Why I built my own static site generator
I have an 84 line bash script that abuses find, sed and multimarkdown to generate a website with a blog, static pages, navigation and rss feed for the blog. The index page has a header and the last 5 blog entries ((Navigation between the blog entries is plain old basic javascript).(https://github.com/nicolasH/frankensteins)You don't have to be on the Node treadmill to create a static site generator. You can use something stable!
