Gatsby - A React framework + static site generator. Pages are created during build time and are served to users. Good for performance and search engine optimization. The ecosystem has many plugins, widgets, and templates.
Pros:
Uses modern technology (React) and well-used/ clean documentation
Lots of community created plugins and support
Full flexibility compared to website builders. Data analytic integration would be free, flexible, and much more comprehensive.
Cons:
Code-intensive, comes with the associated costs (development and maintenance?)
Netlify - Cloud-based website hosting service. Each change to the website is managed by Git (similar to github pages)
NetlifyCMS - Free open source content management system. Made from the same company but separate from Netlify. Serves as an admin system for the site. Can create custom plugins and editors.
Pros:
Easy integration into any website. Uses simple configuration files.
Less bloat than a traditional web builder
Cons:
Documentation is okay-ish
Not as well used as something as something like WordPress
Many of these services can be swapped for others (e.g hosting a WordPress site on Netlify)
