Turning focus back to #webdev, I need your help with any suggestions for a simple #blog solution. All I need is #a11y friendly form management, archives, and comments. Open source, minimal JS. I dream old school: Elegant #Perl, My own #HTML and #CSS. AKA: The real Web. Any ideas?

It’s Python not Perl but if it needs interactivity and a database I generally start with django. Like all things there’s a learning curve but I can go from zero to website in a couple of hours. Happy to help you learn if you decided to go that way.

Oh, Dear King of Britons! Python is quirky but does fit my preferences. I have no Python experience other than study. How much Python do I need to manage and are you're suggesting django flat page app specifically? If so, I'm all ears. I have only used it before because: Simon!

Well, you mentioned forms so that to me implies a database to save stuff into (I assumed comments?). For an uncomplicated site you wouldnt need much python experience, being able to understand sample code and put it together without errors might be enough but obvs more is better.

Replying to @cackhanded
Comments would be secondary the primary need for forms and database is to collect research input from participants in a course of study.
