Just write your articles and pages in Markdown format. As you type, you get a live preview of how your content will look. The tool has built-in styling options to customize the CSS. You also get a front-matter editor to manage SEO and social media metadata.
And once you finish editing, you can export your content as .HTML or .md. You could also import your HTML or markdown as the primer while retaining its meta-data.

🤔 Why html.earth?
The main philosophy behind html.earth is that creating simple web pages should be as direct and low-friction as possible. Too often, perfect content goes unpublished or lost because the hurdles of software, platforms, and technical skills get in the way.
Another key idea is creating evergreen HTML content that stands the test of time. By generating standard HTML and CSS, the sites created with html.earth should remain accessible even if the tool or its hosting platform disappears someday.
If you enjoyed using other static site generators but found them too tech-heavy, give html.earth a try. Here's a demo article created using the tool: https://html.earth/a-reactjs-nig... (served by Cloudflare Pages).
