Hi,

I'm interested in setting up a small static-site-generator site. Looked at 11ty recently and feel pretty uncomfortable with the amount of javascript and "funny language" churn just to make some html happen.

Do you know of any alternative that's simpler / easier / less complicated dependencies? Or do you have an approach to 11ty that you think I should try?

Thanks in advance for any input, it's appreciated!

Seconded. OP, if you can write Markdown, Hugo will turn it into a website.

Thank you for the recommendation!

And best of luck with the repair. That's a crazy bill estimate.

Do you know if hugo blogs can federate?

[–] thagoat@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 3 weeks ago

No, hugo does not federate.

It has RSS built-in, but since it is a static site generator, it does not support ActivityPub out of the box. But I do think I have seen implementations with some custom JavaScript.
