Link where to find the resource https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2015/11/modern-static-website-generators-next-big-thing/

A short description Nice summary of the evolution of the technologies behind websites from the the first ever published website (1991) until now (well, ...2015). It all started with static sites (pure .html files), then came dynamic sites (backend and database heavy), and now we have a hype for static sites again (with static site generators like Jekyll, Gatsby, Hugo etc.)

Additional notes This article is from 2015, but that's fine :-)
