I also tried Hugo in 2020 for my personal homepage and thought it's incredible hard to use if you do not want to use it as a blog. My homepage consists of multiple different pages with different designs and the hoops I had to jump and documentations/blogs to read to find out how to do it was much more time than I wanted to invest in this topic. I can't recommend it at all.

My main gripe that it has expanded and changed too much over the years, it seems they want it to do everything now and it's about as complex to configure as it is to write your own simple tool... Sure, some software needs to be cared for and polished, but hugo was one of those where I converted my site to it, then it simply ran. It's a binary running locally, I don't care about security updates (as I only run it on my own user input) and until I stumble over a bug I can keep using this version as long as the OS will run it..
