I know many people here have various websites associated with them and I'm guessing do at least some of the development of that stuff in Mathematica.

I recently fell down that rabbit hole myself, building out a website with Mathematica by using pelican as the generator (but running pelican from within Mathematica). And I was wondering what other Mathematica-base ways there are to build out such sites.

I'm fond of the customizability of my route, but with great customizability comes great potential to majorly screw things up. Also I'm using the cloud which is known to be buggy, so it's only a matter of time before my site goes up in smoke.

I know C.E. has a WordPress plugin. Is that the standard route?

###Update: One other method I forgot about is that Transmogrify was built for this purpose. But I've never used it for anything other than documentation building as it seems to be a bit finnicky and takes a lot of work to use. Has else anyone used it for anything other than docs?

I guess my question is, what are good route for building full websites with Mathematica? They don't have to be hosted in the cloud, but to restrict the scope of this question, I'm interested in methods that use Mathematica in some integral way--i.e. to deploy the site or, at the minimum, to generate the markdown--not just to make figures.

If it's still too open ended / subject to opinion I'll see if I can restrict the scope further.
