The comment you're responding to is obnoxious, but authoring in Google Docs and exporting to HTML+CSS would be viable and is 10x more accessible than the simultaneously over- and underengineered toolchains and work practices that the professional web developer class has turned out, and doesn't produce output substantially worse than the now-widespread practice of sending mangled/minified payloads to UAs, which in the worst cases involves turning content into opaque blobs that you have to squirt through a JS runtime to get anything meaningful on screen.

The state of the art in Web publishing is such a mess that paid practitioners have, seemingly without realizing it, quietly eliminated the main reason why anyone should even have an expert handle the "lowering" from concept to HTML+CSS instead of using a quasi-WYSIWYG tool or some other crummy sitebuilder and working with whatever shoddy markup they give you.

berkshirehathaway.com (<https://berkshirehathaway.com/>) makes the rounds every now and then, and people ooh and aah over it in the comments, but you can tell they never really get it because then they just turn around and dump their next Vercel-hosted monstrosity on the world.
