How extensive is your experience with building static sites? Mine is limited; perhaps there's more to it than meets the eye.

How extensive is your experience with building static sites? Mine is limited; perhaps there's more to it than meets the eye.
- rattray 10y agoI'll also say that being able to type in markdown and watch the html page change as I do sounds really nice, and I personally much prefer templating with React to tools like jinja, handlebars, etc. The fact that this generates a site that runs like butter with js and works just fine without it is probably the killer feature for me, however. I'm also curious how the code complexity for this compares to tools like pelican, Jekyll, etc.
- savolai 10y agoI envisioned something like this some years ago. What's the excuse of the browser for not preloading page content with JS to minimize loading times, in a progressive enhancement fashion? What's wrong with wanting a less frustrating UX if you're not sacrificing basic functionality when running without JS? This is beautiful, keep going. Hope to use this myself.
