Re point 1: yes. But it’s your bug ridden half framework and you don’t depend on external developers to make sane decisions.

I’ve been using static site generators for my product site and app documentation and every time I set up a new dev machine e (or just update the generator) I’m in dependency hell because some plugins had breaking changes etc. that’s why I switched to my own bug ridden php implementation of the site/docs. At least I don’t get to spend the day googling for change logs, etc when I type ‘make’.

PHP is a bit of a special case here. I returned to PHP after 10+ years of hiatus and was surprised how easy it is to get shit done for the web, I had forgotten all about it.
