I very much like Jekyll because writing content is simply a case of creating a markdown file in the relevant directory and writing it in Vim. It's super simple, as it should be :) Here is an example of a blog post I wrote for my Jekyll-powerd blog: https://raw2.github.com/rey/reyhan.org/gh-pages/_posts/2013-03-12-jekyll-arc... Rey

i am assuming that anyone who is going to edit the blog will have a

As the site needs to be portable as in downloadable, pdfable and
made to run offline.
Is there any reason it cant be built in html?
a webmaster can update it and push out new pages.
i know this goes against scaling and there will be argument that it
should be ruby or jekyll or octopus or whatever garbage is in
fashion at the moment.
"Jekyll is basically a set of markdown files you edit in a text
editor and then they're rendered in the browser as valid HTML by
the generator (liquid, I thin" seems to be it solves a problem that
dosent exist.
Jekyll generates HTML that can be put on any server that serves static
files.
The advantage of Jekyll is that you can define templates and includes
that simplify your development work and reduce repetition in your code.
Using markdown, textile or another text to html generators, helps
content creators to write their texts without having to worry about html.
It's rendered into your jekyll template and stored as a simple html file.
In the end you have to distribute the generated html, images and css
files and nothing more.
Cheers
