Tool to create a website that is not a CMS
Hi all Bit of a strange question, but does anyone know of an accessible tool, for Windows, that will allow a client of mine to create a website? She doesn’t want to use Drupal or Wordpress but still wants things like CSS to have a consistent style across the site. She only knows very basic HTML so A program where a lot of coding needs to be done won’t work either. I’ve tried a lot of programs where you’re meant to drag and drop elements but none of them work with NVDA or Jaws. It’s for a charity website, so it shouldn’t need to be that advanced, maybe a signup form for the mailing list and a contact form. Thanks for any help.

Hi Luke, You might look at Hugo: https://gohugo.io/ It's free and you just need to write text files (markdown). It also supports theming and a lot of stuff.

To be honest, I'd use WordPress and be done with it. You only need install WordPress get your title of the site, install Contact Form 7 which is a plugin, install Accessible Contacts for Contact Form 7 and there's a basic web site. No real coding needed at all.

Perhaps writing in Markdown or ASCIIDoc and converting to HTML would be easiest. There are various tools available along those lines. Luke Scholey <l.scholey@lukescholey.co.uk> wrote:
