I code my wordpress themes, plugins, and functions by hand. I also code
other sites by hand as well, but I generally include a web-based editor for
the final product that utilizes php and mysql for page generation.
Recently just coded something similar to what you outlined, only it was 16
pages. :) Just because you do things by hand doesn't mean you code each and
every page by hand. Any developer worth their beans will make page
generation as dynamic as needed.

Also, content is not part of coding. It's what your code is built to
handle. :)
