- RobinL 7y ago..and also super flexible/powerful. If you just want to turn markdown into static pages, it's probably overkill. But if you want interactivity or complex layouts, it's great. Here's my Gatsby site: https://robinl.github.io/robinlinacre/ https://robinl.github.io/robinlinacre/
- joeyspn 7y agoAnother vote for Gatsby here. If the OP does js he should look no further. Although it all depends on what language he is most comfortable with.
- Touche 7y agoGatsby sites are bloated with JS that is mostly not used. If the goal is a static site then Gatsby might be the worst possible choice.
- mattkevan 7y agoI’m sure there are occasions where it makes a ton of sense, and React, especially for large or complex web applications, is amazing. But for a static site generator, it’s like someone sat down to develop the most convoluted way of getting a bit of html on the screen. Bonus points for the resulting site not working at all without JavaScript.
