There are quite a few themes out there already and growing rapidly. Adding a CSS theme is almost as easy as a wordpress theme. If you wanted a theme catered to your website, I would expect you'd have to get someone to style it up regardless.

The main two things Wordress has on static generated blogs at the moment are their current community and the editing experience. The editing is of course by design. I have heard that prose.io[0] is nice, but have never worked with it. Essentially webhooked github for cms-free blogs. To me, that seems like the way we should be going.

edit: add link, their site is mainly for access [0] https://github.com/prose/prose

Thank you. You're right that I'd need a developer in any case to first customise the theme, but then also to add customisations over time.

It's still holding us back, though, having a PHP app that a developer needs to edit, instead of allowing any of the team to add content to the site.
