I too had build my own static site generator. A buddy asked if he could use it to build some sites, so I invested in it being more polished. Put a REST API in front of the engine and file management, and then an AJAX SPA on top of the API. Over the years, it's been used by a bunch of web sites - large and small. The largest was Longwood Gardens - which had hundreds of pages.

This was about 20 years ago now. Once it a while I consider refactoring/resurrecting it. But I've not found the time.
