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!

Just drop all your markdown files in a directory and run
sphinx-build
. Highly customizable but also works out of the boxI like using Hugo at present
Thanks for the recommendation!
Codeberg Pages if you don’t mind a give-or-take weekly 30 min downtime. GitHub Pages if you do. GitLab Pages if you have a creditcard which they require to verify your identity.
I recently switched to Codeberg Pages and it’s the first time I’m hearing about a weekly downtime. Is there somewhere this is documented or I can read more about it?
“Honestly, I am completely unsure how to proceed with the pages server.
It might be the best idea to deprecate it.”
I want to second Pelican for Python. Really easy to set up and get going. No need to learn a complicated templating language (it’s jinja2, which is what everything uses).
Thanks for the recommendation!
