I am currently using Hugo as a static site generator for my blog. It's not bad but rather limited. Does anybody know about something that would be equally as lightweight but offer some more flexibility. I just don't know what is out there so anything you guys could come up with would be appreciated.

Jekyll is great with a bunch of narrow tailored plugins to add only functionality you need. You can self host or use GitHub Pages (they only allow approved list of plugins).

I found this article questioning the future of Jekyll. It says one of the maintainers of Jekyll suggested 11ty as an alternative.

I have zero experience with either, tough; YMMV.

It's still being developed 🤷 and as it's an open-source project it can always be forked if the maintainers decide to stop.

Was just curious so I went to have a look 😊👍

The releases seem to support that it's slowed down some, though, like the article suggested. No releases for past ~6 months. Closed issues seem mainly to be constraint releasing.

Again, I don't know much about it 😊👍
