Hey Thomas
Thanks so much for your feedback! Your website is looking nice! Let me address some of your questions here:
Yeah, we had to find a minimum grid with do make sure we can keep your stuff responsive, so far we haven't had anyone who wanted to go below, but it's something on our backlog.
Yes, we need to do some better work communicating this. Usually after watching a video you get it. (or if you're used to developing, because its basically how a page is built up)
Thats very high on our todo list! You got it (: Especially for fullscreen covers.

Hi Craig. You are right. I mixed up the tools and thought about another one thats more geared towards amateur users (there are so many), my mistake here. I don't know Webflow.
Hey Vojin and Vince
How about you both email to help@semplice.com and we get you sorted? We still would love to help you and maybe we can find a solution there.
Whatcha think? Tobias
Semplice is first and foremost for visual portfolios. We try to make it as accessible as possible. Everything beyond that, we give you the power to go further if you need to. I wouldn't say it's inaccessible by default, but judging by your tone you already seem to have made up your mind (:
Hey Jonathan - I'd say we're more focused on the professional maker, designer & developers who like to self host and use a tool that was actually made by designers and the designer/developers mindset. We're not trying to market to amateurs. Hope this clarifies a few things.
Hey Dean
ALT text is absolutely no problem, WordPress takes care of that and it works with Semplice. Focus States depends, I don't think we considered this yet but you could easily add some custom CSS within Semplice to get all of these things done. In the end, Semplice is just a framework really and a tool that you can tweak further to your liking.
Hey Clay, we used to, but the new Semplice is completely based on the API. No more ACF. See here: https://twitter.com/vanschneider/status/906269878914605056
Hey Clay, this is pretty much what we think as well. If you take your first question, this is exactly what we attempted to solve with Semplice. Once you're in the Semplice backend, there is no more WordPress in sight. It's a full custom backend, on top of WordPress.
