The beauty of an all-static website, is that it’s all data, and that it is fully defined by a set of files on the disk. By copying it, or restoring it to some previous state, we can instantly adjust the appearance of the website. No databases to launch, and no application servers.
You would think that static websites are limited-purpose. But what is a weblog, or even a discussion forum, other than a set of pages which occasionally changes during the day?
