Too Long; Didn't Read
Static Site Generator (also called static publisher) is a program that generates a complete website as an output. The generation can either be done locally on your computer or on a web server during deployment. The website is then served through your web server — just like the old ’n’ days. Content is typically written in a template language like Markdown or Liquid. This allows you to concentrate on your writing and ignore the layout and styling of your content. With Netlify and GitLab, GitHub you get static hosting for free. With GitHub you can also edit your website on the go and deploy simply by committing new content.
