Ask HN: Which tool/service to host a “non-techy” company's site

Prismic Forestry.io
  1. prismic.io is a web software you can use to manage content in any kind of website or app. API-driven.
    I am a fan of static pages and if you are working with „non-technical“ folks a headless CMS might be what you are looking for.<p>In a recent project (Website for my mom) I went with <a href="https://prismic.io" rel="nofollow">https://prismic.io</a> which gives a simple API/good SDKs to connect to a static site generator of your choice. Went with Nuxt as a site generator. Backups are easy as well, as I can just crawl the API. A new publish of a page triggers a new CI build via Webshop and about 60s later the page is deployed to GitLab pages.<p>Prismic works well for me as it allows me to create custom forms for different page types, handles media reasonably well and supports i18n out of the box.<p>Another interesting approach is <a href="https://forestry.io" rel="nofollow">https://forestry.io</a> which pushes the content directly to git.
