I did. IMO, Hugo is the closest of any static gen to hitting the sweet spot of simplicity and feature set.
However, there were some features that I simply could not add to it. Features that if I didn't have the tooling bogging me down, I could implement in 10 minutes.

I can't fault Hugo for that GH issue though. The author's response is valid.
I know I sound grumpy. Hugo is great. It is a far better option than Gatsby. The features that it has are very simple and straightforward (no graph nodes/graphql/webpack-esque abstractions). I actually highly recommend Hugo.
edit: To add onto my original comment, I encourage people to read this blog post.

- annywhey 8y agoI took the approach of bolting a second compiler on top of Hugo(a custom Python script) to get the extra things I wanted in Hugo. It still took a while, but I did get to leverage the parts of Hugo that already work well. I don't think there's much in the way of winning either way, since now I have a Build Process.
