What stack is your personal blog built on? - eviltoast

Time appropriate greetings, folks!

I have finally put an end to my procrastination and finally wrote my first blog post. Thing is, I still have nowhere to publish it. What stack are you all using for your personal pages, folks? I don’t really want to spend a whole lot of time tinkering, but I still want some wiggle room to do so in case I change my mind down the line.

Thanks!

    Hugo. https://gohugo.io/ No need for any moving parts. Write your blog post in MD, commit to git, git hooks will do the rest, build the site and if you are using GitHub or GitLab, even host your blog for free with their static site system. It’s amazing. I highly recommend Hugo. I also highly recommend static sites for a blog. Your blog doesn’t need to be a dynamic mess of potentially hackable code. Just keep it simple and fast. My website loads up faster and is more dynamic than my old WordPress site. Fewer security risks too.
