I know of four PHP static site generators.

1. Jigsaw: Laravel Blade templates. Source Code
2. Couscous: Twig templates. Source Code
3. Sculpin: Twig templates. Source Code
4. Spress: Twig templates. Source Code

The key advantage is obvious: dynamicity “technically” comes for free. Feedback/debugging loops “can” be made instantaneous, and scaling to a large output is probably not too difficult.

One downside is that corporate minded developers and consumers online will think you’re a noob for choosing PHP.

The space of software hosting forges is sizeable. Most techy people know about GitHub and GitLab but many software forges exist (if considering the entire world). Here’s a few of note.

1. NotABug: Based on Gogs.
2. SourceHut: Suite of free software development tools built from the ground up.
3. Codeberg: Based on Gitea.
4. SourceForge: Mainstream software hosting.
5. Radicle: Decentralized on the service layer (discussions/issues). Git itself is distributed and decentralized.
6. Savannah: Suite of software development tools from GNU.
