Do you mean "website" to be an app built in the LiveCode IDE which is then published to html in the Standalone Builder?
Or do you mean "website" to be a structure of pages delivered by a server with mixed content including that generated by LiveCode from hosted files and libraries much the same as PHP?
If the former, I have no current experience but I believe that in more recent years there have been considerable advances in the initial load and performance over the original experience of early years. I am not competent to advise, however.
If equating with PHP, then I think you will find LiveCode Server is very responsive and performance is admirable. You would still need a combination of html, javascript and LiveCode to create much dynamic content, but treat it like a pure replacement of PHP and simple websites would be a breeze.
My own use has never really been to "create" websites so I can not direct to any public facing examples. In the past, I have frequently done a lot of back end work using LiveCode Server to enhance or automate functions and features for a client on their own site, often interacting with MySQL and/or Wordpress as well.
