artichoke VS gutenberg

The java based ruby, removes the GIL, which provides us real multithreading.

Truffleruby is "A high performance implementation of the Ruby programming language, built on GraalVM." If you prefer there is even a rust based ruby https://github.com/artichoke/artichoke

again, IMO, the microbenchmark, doesn't matter. What matters is the problem domain, whole stack and the whole "speed", including development, deployment and etc, and for some domains, ruby is the best and fast choice.

Not to be pedantic but Ruby has webassembly support, still won't work on the BEAM.

Artichoke is a Ruby interpreter written in Rust.

The owner of this reserved crate is Ryan Lopopolo who seems to indeed work on artichoke

I believe it was written mainly for/within the context of artichoke, which is an implementation of Ruby written (mostly) in Rust. It's a neat project!

So after shopping around a bit I found a simple, dependency-less static site generator called Zola. The lack of dependencies sounded very attractive after all the headaches trying to update my Gatsby modules. I wanted to give Zola a try and see what tradeoffs I would need to make coming form a React-based framework to this Rust-based generator.

I think you're thinking about Zola: https://github.com/getzola/zola

But yes, if I were to recommend something, it'd be Zola given that there's just one executable that you need to run and there's absolutely no setup required.

If I were to start again from scratch, I'd likely use Zola as SSG (https://www.getzola.org/)

I've used Zola (https://github.com/getzola/zola) for a static project homepage a few years ago to showcase examples with a simple description and a wasm app embedded in the page, it worked perfectly for me and the docs was clear on how to use it. It was very easy to set up along with a GitHub action to automatically update the wasm binaries when needed. It is definitely a tool I keep in my mental toolbox as a good default.

I'm currently learning https://www.getzola.org/.

It's more manual than idy like but it's gonna be for a small personal and work website so I don't mind much.

It's super fast.

Doesn't seem to fit your use casr but still.

(Note: that list is overwhelming; you don't need to go through it. Order by popularity and look at the top 3-5 at most. Hugo, Jekyll, Gatsby... Personally I'm using Zola [ https://www.getzola.org/ ] for a couple of sites, but that's just me.)
