Jekyll is written in Ruby, but you're right that being used for Github pages makes it popular.

  m000 is saying that the usage of Jekyll (Ruby) and Hugo (Go) are driven in part by hip trend-following programmers not wanting to use Python, not that Jekyll and Hugo are written in Python.

    Right, I think the counter here is that Ruby isn’t trendier than Python is.

      Not anymore, but it sure used to be, around the time Jekyll came into the mainstream.
