Did you think about just templating your static stuff? You're not going to get new portfolio entries every day and you likely don't need writing staff accounts, comments, or anything similar that CMSes are about.

If you either template what you have now, or go with something from https://www.staticgen.com/ you get a few benefits:

- no upgrades necessary, no security patches, no incompatibilities

- you can host yourself trivially

- you can host literally anywhere, including just sticking the files on s3

Yeah, this looks like a promising solution! I assume this means content creation occurs in the source code instead (not a showstopper, but a nice-to-have request from my friend)?
