The real problem with any SSG is where to host and edit Markdown files and images for flexible spur of the moment content creation. I've built my own Wordpress-export-to-static solution to use the native iOS App as a workaround but it feels somewhat clunky — Same with having to run a headless CMS for this in the background; Surprisingly with all the gazillion of MD editors, no one has ever built one with live editing files in, say, S3 + allowing to upload assets.
And no, I don't consider content composition in a terminal window to be an inspiring environment because I'm a sucker for aesthetic apps.
Addendum: Mobile is just an added bonus. Best solution for me would be iA Writer as an editor, native image upload to a bucket like S3 and Apple allowing me to tap into these iCloud hosted .md files via an API. Then use a simple script to put the pieces together and move the stuff to Netlify or wherever.
