Do you now a simple CMS, could be a static website generator, with a WYSIWYG editor ? Something easy to manage by someone with no computers skills, with mostly text and images, a bit of styling, but nothing hard

you mean, beside Wordpress? Joomla, Drupal maybe?

I use Hugo for my static website/blog (with mostly text and the occasional image). It's not wysiwig but it's not difficult either as even I can use it ;)

    I second Hugo. I just created a blog with it recently and I like just writing everything up in markdown. I don't need fancier formatting than that.

    And VSCode or any editor with a preview pane basically makes it WYSIWYG. I don't know about the images part as I've not done any yet.

    Hugo is exactly the kind I don't want, WYSIWYG is important :D

    I don't think you will find simpler than WordPress I'm afraid (and I moved away from it because it has turned into such a mess).

    Are you sure the user can't learn the basics of Markdown? I mean I'm 50+ years old and it took me mere minutes to learn it ;)

    Maybe just a WYSIWYG markdown editor would make it viable for you. But I've been writing comments in markdown for so many years between here, Reddit, code repositories, and LLM instructions, it's practically second nature to me.

    I like publii. Simple desktop application to make a static website.

    I use a CMS called Joomla. It's for work, and although it was a hassle to get up and running, Its very easy to use. You can also add a wysiwyg editor called "JCE by widget factory unlimited" which I also use.

    If you find an alternative tho, let me know since I'm always on the hunt for a better system : )

    Wordpress is what you are looking for. You can even create the page in a word processor of choice and just paste it in.
