Some static site generators that I am considering for a project or two

Static Site Generators

I have a couple of projects that I am working on that I think will be ideal for a static site generator (SSG). As I evaluate my options, I'll capture some notes here.

There's a whole list of SSGs on the Jamstack site.

Standslone SSGs

  • Jekyll - Ruby; one of the OG SSGs
  • Blot - Javascropt (mostly) available as a service or deployed locally
  • 11ty - Javascript; popular
  • Hugo - Go; packaged as an all-in-one CLI tool, which is nice. Very fast!
  • Pelican - Python
  • Next.js - Javascript; works with React (which is maybe good or maybe bad)

SaaS SSGs
