Not to detract from OP's tool, but Pandoc is an excellent and underused tool for this use case.
After previously playing with the https://unifiedjs.com https://unifiedjs.com ecosystem extensively, I recently redid my personal site (https://simple.industries https://simple.industries) with a 80 line shell script that uses Pandoc instead: https://git.sr.ht/~kb/open-notes/tree/main/item/.build.sh https://git.sr.ht/~kb/open-notes/tree/main/item/.build.sh.
- Brajeshwar 4y agoThanks for this. I'm going to check this out and try it on my website. My site has become too heavy for Jekyll. I don't need to render it all the time as I write mostly in plain-text (Markdown) these days. I have Obsidian doing that for me and let Github/Cloudflare use Jekyll to publish. I was looking for a solution where I can render just a page or two when I want but continue to write on Obsidian. These days, I can walk outside, take few sips of tea while Jekyll renders a post locally.
- kimburgess 4y agoThat's a similar setup to me. Obsidian works beautifully for fast, efficient editing, local preview and creation. The plug-in ecosystem also lets that be customised to your individual needs. Similarly, Pandoc works amazingly well out of the box, but then let's you extend as required with filters in a way that just feels right.
