Follow-up Comment #10, task #15586 (project reproduce):

This is interesting, thanks Pedram, we will look into it. Ultimately we need a
solution that we can host (and move around) ourselves. 

For the documentation (or "Wiki") part of the webpage personally prefer
lower-level solutions, for example having a Texinfo source (basically TeX, but
with an `@' instead of `\') that can produce a beautiful PDF (created in
LaTeX), a nice HTML webpage, an `info' manual for the command-line, or just
simple plain-text. Similar to all the formats of Gnuastro's main book which
you can see on its webpage <https://www.gnu.org/software/gnuastro/manual>. The
HTML produced by Texinfo is very complete with many tags, giving us full
freedom to give it an elegant style with CSS. In the case of Gnuastro, I
didn't have much time, so I just opted for a simple CSS which you can see in
its doc/style.css
<http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnuastro.git/tree/doc/style.css>. 

Anyone who wants to improve the documentation/Wiki, can simply edit its source
and push a commit and the webpage maintainer will inspect it and merge it in,
having a clean and elegant history, while also not needing any online log-in,
and all the complications it brings with it.

But for the time being, let's just stick to static pages and get the webpage
started ;-). 

I have already started the process of getting an online storage to host the
content and hopefully it will be done by the end of this week :-). Do you
think you can have a working first webpage structure by then? In a few days I
can have a look and help in filling it up with some contents and testing it.
It would be great if maneage.org can actually show something from the end of
this week ;-).
