Git and GitHub Pages: Simple to set up and use, supports Markdown and code snippets.
Other than that I've never really understood the appeal of static site generators for normal websites or blogs that don't have millions of monthly page views.
Tools like Hugo for many common use cases (like ordinary websites with ordinary scalability requirements) often come across as a solution desperately looking for a problem while at the same time creating a few new problems: Compared with dynamic website software like WordPress they can be difficult to set up and they tend to be more difficult to use, especially for non-technical users.
