I'm thinking of starting a blog soon, does anyone know if the popular static site generators (Hugo, Jekyll, etc.) have trivial support for RSS?

  Jekyll has a plug-in (jekyll-feed) for adding an Atom feed, which is what I use for my website: https://saagarjha.com/feed.xml https://saagarjha.com/feed.xml

    With Jekyll you can also get a simple RSS view directly in a page template, rather than bring in a full plugin. (Useful, for instance, on GitHub Pages where the available plugins are restricted.) For example: https://github.com/WorldMaker/blog.worldmaker.net/blob/gh-pages/feed.xml https://github.com/WorldMaker/blog.worldmaker.net/blob/gh-pa... (Mine's additional fun because I also tried to make sure that three previous RSS URLs remained supported in my migrations across multiple blog engines over more than a decade and a half.)

      jekyll-feed is whitelisted for use on GitHub Pages: https://pages.github.com/versions/ https://pages.github.com/versions/

        Good to know. (Looks like Jekyll-feed was added to GitHub Pages sometime in 2016, and I last updated my RSS feed way back in 2015.)
