Chromium, Firefox... if you open the dev tools, you can edit everything, with it showing in the browser in real-time (WYSIWYG).
Firefox Developer Edition has some extra tools and debugging modes, but some are redundant if you're using VS Code.
If you're looking for a Dreamweaver-like thing, where you could drop elements with minimum HTML writing... you may want to check Seamonkey Composer.
For a simple personal website though, I'd recommend using a markdown editor, then either export it through a template, or have a template interpreter on the site, like GitHub Pages.
This is what a static site generator does.

(I don't know why jamstack has taken over that site, but the list itself seems to be intact.)
Not really taken over, more just a rebranding. Both are owned by netlify, started off as a list of static site generators you could use with netlify (aka all of them they could find) but then they just rebranded the site and gave it a fancy name like you have with all the other web stacks you have these days.
