@leggylav Let's MAKE ONE!!
@IceWolf i'd love to, were i not utterly incompetent at anything software dev, hehe
hypocritical perhaps but i've had bad luck with more elaborate projects like that myself.
i think there is a distinct albeit niche want for this though
@leggylav I wanna do this myself now! :3
@topaz @IceWolf any of y'all would be the hero of a niche internet community if you did hehe.
there are options like zonelets.net, boxboxhtml, or strawpage, but all of these have some huge restriction keeping them from being easily generalized
(zonelets focuses on neocities only, boxbox is a rather obtuse css layout generator, strawpage is restricted to having your page hosted through them and is primarily drag and drop without much coding option from what i've seen)
@topaz @IceWolf got back on this line of thought from a post elsewhere that was shared from a blog i enjoy https://invisibleup.com/articles/33/ there's a good deal of examples of what made them AWESOME in that article too ^^
@topaz @IceWolf excited to see what you come up with hehe
i feel a lot of the benefit of those editors too comes in some of the slightly guided approach, e.g. in a hierarchical project view see the top down whole site view, look at reports of orphaned links and files, etc.
arguably in templates as well, but that's something the web is lousy with, it's more so in the integration of all of that!
kinda odd the shift that a lot of software has taken recently to be targeted to a professional user that has domain knowledge, rather than a general audience like this stuff used to be.
