Hands-down, the best static site generator
why do you need a "static site generator".
>>106463175why do you need to write retarded replies?
>>106463154I couldn't get it to work (too tired to read the docs)Built my own instead
>>106463154If you have to write markdown, why not write html directly? They're not that different.
>>106463184just answer the question you absolute homosexual.
>>106463154>static site generatorIt shouldn't exist. What's the use case?
>>106463175>Noooo, you can't make lightweight websites, you need to use Bloatpress for a simple blog!
>>106464419some niggas are literally lazy. I don't understand it either. I don't get static site generators either.
we don't need more websites
>>106464419They're exactly nothing alike.
>>106464529>implyingyou little shit.
>>106463154probably. I haven't tried a different one.
>>106464419why bother with abstractions at all?
>>106463154Shit orgmode support
>>106464619use case?
it gets convoluted pretty quick. my website now just serves pdfs i write in typst
>>106464529all you need is a text editor, friend
Sticking with Jekyll
i havent been to a new website in yearscaptcha p00 4dd
>>106463189Literally same. 2 years ago company tried to use it and I just said fuck this, made one simple one in go in an afternoon
>>106464529Yep, if you aren't doing 8 db queries per refresh ngmi
Too much bloat for my taste, I've a shell script that do better then this shitware. It's around 100 SLOC.
>>106463175Because I’d rather write Markdown than HTML and I want to have full-text Atom feeds without having two copies of every blog post>>106467919Based>>106463154I like it but it’s kind of annoying to set up in a way I like and I think it needs more Rails Guides-style documentation to get people in the general vibe so they’re not surprised by things that are explained by reading the content-collections documentation
>>106463154Almost no one ITT even knows what Hugo is or does. Even the faggots saying they wrote their own (they didn't, except maybe the shell script guy), don't understand what they're saying.To the rest of you dumb niggers: If you're building a simple static site, just a page or two, then sure. It makes sense to do it with a text editor. If your site is 10+ pages, and each page has significantly different content, but you need all of these pages to be aesthetically and functionally coherent, and you frequently update shit, then you use Hugo (or Jekyll). They save massive amounts of time by way of their templating and action systems (think macros), and yes, being able to write large amounts of content in simple markdown is monumentally comfy.Read:https://gohugo.io/templates/introduction/https://jekyllrb.com/docs/liquid/Or stay retarded.
>>106470861>struggling to maintain consistencyhow is this an issue for most of you? genuinely what the fuck is wrong with people?
>>106463154Love it. I'm one of the webmasters for American Renaissance and we've been slowly porting over a good chunk of the site to Hugo. Great software. The non-whites plaguing this site wouldn't get it.
>>106470872>strawmanFaggot.
>>106470789valid.>>106470907>>strawmanwhy are we just making shit up now. whatever. fine. enjoy hugo. if it works for you, that's great.
>>106463154i agree, and being able to see changes in real time with the integrated mini http server is extremelly cool, but i haven't been able to get a theme that i enjoy using and my brain is small so i can't modify them/add functionaly so i don't use it
>>106463154I prefer this https://vitepress.dev/>>106464419This. The markdown will be converted to html anyways. But html at least allows you to set custom attributes/classes when needed. Working with markdown is only acceptable if you can guarantee that all you'll ever need is the default theme, without any custom conditions and styles, and without any JS functionality.
the replies ITT show the absolute state of this board.
>>106471150Elaborate.
>>106471443They just feel kind of transphobic
>>106470920Funny and cool image mind if I save?
>>106464419Generate an RSS feed and html from a single source, and edit the layout of your website without having to edit every page individually
>>106463154bashblog
>>106473543also pandoc is goated for static site generation. just make a wrapper around pandoc and utilize all its awesome features like taking a md file with codeblocks and turning it into a static html file with inline codeblock styling using some language syntax highlighting library
