But the currently available tools often requires people to have certain other knowledge (such as server-side scripting in PHP, Managing MySQL databases, etc) to create and manage a simple real-life website. Aim of Punch is to remove this layer of complexity and be a comfortable tool for even someone who knows only the basics.
Personally, I believe it's still easy to create manageable websites only with HTML, CSS and JS.
However, as I mentioned in the post Punch is quite flexible. If someone fancy they can even extend it to parse CoffeeScript or Sass as well.
