This is a great list! Hadn’t heard of cms.js before, looks interesting.

I wonder what the dividing line between ‘blog’ and ‘framework’ was? I was surprised to see 11ty and Jekyll under blog, instead of down with Gatsby and Hugo under Framework.

Author of the list here. At the time i created this list the separation between blog and framework was how much code vs. content you had to write to build the website. Jekyll for instance can be built with just a few markdown files while Gatsby required you to write JSX code. This probably doesn’t make sense in this day and age of static site generation and I should rethink the sections.
Yeah wondering the same. Would be good to understand some of the criteria for choices and some top 3 type recommendations for each choice.
