Set up publii for a non-technical client, it looked like everything the client needed, but a few stumbling blocks

1) Themes are too limited, there are <10 and the path to customization is not simple. This is a chicken and egg problem, if publii grows, more themes come into the marketplace, but only having a few themes limits growth.

2) Even though it has a pretty good GUI, it is still confusing for non-technical people, and I struggled a lot with it too, mostly because there aren't tooltips next to fields to explain them (e.g. what is the difference between a "title" and a "label" for a link?)

I'll have to unfortunately move to something else for my client, and revisit publii at a later time.

Great feedback, I will send it to the authors. Publii is is still in beta so your comments will be helpful.

PS: In fact, there are 10 themes at this moment but show me the same quality, free themes that come with other static generators.
