I'm experienced with using static site generators like Jekyll and Wintersmith. Would it be valuable for me to set one up and submit a PR?\r\n\r\nThe biggest benefit is that it becomes easier to maintain the site. If you want to add an events, resource, or other content, you just create a new Markdown or YAML file.\r\n\r\nThe downside is that you require a build step for previewing changes on your local machine. Ruby or JavaScript-based tooling is trivial though. Dependencies and tasks can be rolled into the repo too.\r\n\r\nLet me know what you think."}}
