Web identity via Python: Static or Dynamic?

Putting together a static site using a Python static site generator (SSG) seemed to be a better solution than an entire Django thing. I don't shy away from complexity, but I don't need that here. Pelican is a great alternative for something a little lighter.

It was nice to learn about the variety of static site generators available for Python, and the DRY (don't repeat yourself) principle was an eye-opener. Spend less time recreating the wheel and more time writing or working on something else? Sure. I can buy into that.

That said, I am enjoying configuring and fine-tuning Django websites with MekComputing. There are so many resources and tutorials available for consumption out there, that there's nearly no good excuse not to learn and do more. This brings me to the point of this writing, in that every project and developer should reflect within and decide if they need static or dynamic content for what they need to do.
