Content Management Systems (CMS) / Static Site Generators (SSG) Perspectives

Luke Harris ☛ Blog questions challenge
Hugo hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Why? No reason.
Hugo manages the page generation and scaffolding for new posts, and I manage the content files by hand. I don’t need to manage things often but when I do, Hugo’s strict nature eventually reminds me that I’m procrastinating and should get back to what I was supposed to be doing before I got distracted by tinkering with the blog.

Ruben Schade ☛ A big thank you to Hugo
The Hugo static site generator is the first one I want to call out. I’ve bounced around almost a dozen CMSs here since 2004, but I’ve been on Hugo since 2016.
I first moved to Hugo from Jekyll when the latter was taking upwards of half an hour to render the site. Hugo takes less than twenty seconds to generate almost ten thousand posts, hundreds of podcasts, archives for thousands of tags, and some truly ghastly theme code that I’ve hacked together over many years.
