Rethink how the website is built #114

This is a discussion for the future:

assuming we have the time or, preferably, some money to pay for some development on the website, what do think, @PonteIneptique, of the possibility to use a static website generator for htr-united? Something where we can focus on the content and on the very specific cases of the forms and JS, but where updating the aspect of the website, and the texte, would be a bit more straight forward.

I still want to keep it it low tech, but I feel like we can achieve low tech with website generators like Nikola or Hugo (or others)

Another option for a static website builder could be to use Flask + Flask freezer. In general though, it doesn't make sense that we continue with a hard coded web page: on top of making the content more easily updated, it would ensure that the styling of text is a bit more consistent across pages.

I'll look into finding an alternative while ensuring that the pages that we build automatically still work.
