blog VS quartz

Here's my personal blog, set up in 2019 on github pages (free hosting), built with Jekyll [1] which supports markdown, code snippets, tags, sections and more.

For a technical person, it does the job pretty well and almost without any maintenance effort:

- Live: https://thomasvilhena.com/

Quartz! https://quartz.jzhao.xyz/

Beautiful, performant, native support for editing via Obsidian. I use it for my personal side, https://thestu.art

I know this sort of undermines this post, but just incase anyone is actually in search of a good markdown to wiki generator, use Quartz. (https://quartz.jzhao.xyz)

It's basically Obsidian Publish but free.

Check out https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz ! I found it recently and customized it a bit to redo my personal website (https://studium.dev don't mind the header on mobile, I need to fix that still). I plan to transfer my Logseq notes to it eventually but you could just as easily do the same for any markdown based notes

Looks cool! How does it compare to something like quartz?

I use Quartz* for my personal site, and just edit it directly in Obsidian. One push to GitHub and it's deployed, with very little effort. It's like Obsidian Publish, but much more customizable.

Before this, I felt the same as the linked post - there was too much friction for me to ever publish anything.

There are a few options for this already. A good one just came out a few days ago called Quartz: https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz
