I see static site tools are still trending. I've used a variety of static site tools for play but never had a client opt for it. Probably the only static site I'm currently running is for my local Auckland CSS meetup and that's just plain ol' hard coded HTML.

For those clients that require a CMS and not specifically a blog, I use http://processwire.com

The plugin ecosystem is lacking but I've always been impressed with its performance and intuitive API. I don't currently run e-commerce on it but Gumroad would be my first choice if I had to.



I always push Processwire for questions like this. It is very versatile and makes for a capable CMS / blog / whatever.

I'm planning on using processwire to build a webstore with either Foxycart or Snipcart.

Just as a starter I will be moving my personal blog over to it just so I can have one processwire app in production.
