I wanted to migrate away from my Jekyll website but Hugo was a mess back then. Unintuitive, weird syntax, weird logic. This was years ago and my Jekyll blog still runs perfectly. I'm gonna migrate or to Astro sometime as Jekyll is deprecated
- beardedwizard 2y agoI migrated from Hugo to Astro and by that I mean I had to basically start from scratch. I'm using it but suspect Astro will be the next Hugo in a few years time. It is not overly simple in any way.
- ValentineC 2y ago> I'm using it but suspect Astro will be the next Hugo in a few years time. It is not overly simple in any way. If anyone wants simple, I think Eleventy is the way to go. I've finally been exploring Astro recently, and apart from Astro-specific features like Content Collections, everything else seems fairly stable, or at least unopinionated the way Hugo is (except Hugo changes their opinion far too much).
- runjake 2y agoAgreed. Astro seems more of the same as Hugo, except JS-based. Note that for its intended audience, this is a feature.
- runjake 2y agoBecause the language here is unclear, Jekyll is not deprecated. It is still making releases (4.3.4, a few weeks ago)
- 3eb7988a1663 2y agoI guess software is never done, but Jekyll is over 20 years old at this point. That is a long time to still be iterating on a Markdown to HTML converter.
- runjake 2y agoWait until I break the news about 90% of the tools in the Linux world.
