I hand-coded the website for my aunt (exhibition curator), then went on and coded a static site generator in C# so that she can edit the site content in a text file and just runs a single command window application. The site does not use cookies, JavaScript, plugins, tracking, etc. We have no cookie banner popup, because we don't need it. The response e-mail to the inquiry about what personal data we collect is one sentence: we don't collect any personal data. Loading the biggest site takes 28 milliseconds raw, 780ms with all images. Every day there's 100+ bots trying to exploit WordPress vulnerabilites, but she doesn't have to worry about maintenance, because the whole website is literally nothing but a bunch of HTML, CSS and JPEG files. It's freaking GLORIOUS!

This brought me back to 20 years ago when I made my own portfolio website with just HTML and written in a Notepad.
