Is there a free alternative to Google Sites that's open source? I want one with free custom domains, not subdomains.

Yes, but it's a script you install on a web server. I want a builder that's similar to Google Sites.

    As a developer: google sites is 100% the exact same as wordpress, just looks better.

    I’m not gonna slander you for not knowing the difference between a host and a content management system.

    The issue seems to be that google offers a pretty foolproof experience for people with limited technical knowledge. That is not the case with the majority of open source systems.

    Additionally: from what I hear, you wont get free top level domains with sites and not with other providers so please accept that you wont get this for free.

    Have a good one.
