Do we really need variadics?
I'm using bridgetown because I like sitting on the bleeding edge, its basically a newer Jekyll which I would recommend checking out too. Bridgetown has a great modern dev experience but its missing some of the ecosystem from Jekyll. Not a problem for me because I'm really comfortable with Ruby.

Why write technical content on a blog and not only on social media
If you want to have a different UI or your blog to look in a very specific way I recommend using Jekyll or Bridgetown.

How would I make and deploy a simple website
If I wanted to post a simple website today I would look into Jekyll. There are a ton of articles and answers to common questions etc. It itself is written in Ruby but using it will not likely help you to learn Ruby. One-step in the direction of learning Ruby and getting a simple website could be Bridgetown. This will start you down a path of learning Ruby and not Rails. We use Bridgetown for our company site at Flagrant.

How to use View Transitions in Hotwire Turbo
In the Hotwire Turbo world specifically, several discussions about integrating transition animations also took place and a few promising approaches emerged, namely the Turn project or the transitions in Bridgetown. There is also a chapter in the Noel Rappin’s Modern Front-End book and an interesting article but overall, frankly, this topic still fells somewhat early-stage and exploratory.

how to add a simple blog to my SaaS?
If you’re not adept in that right now you’re unlikely to create a system to support it. I would encourage you to look into Jekyll or Bridgetown.rb as blog systems that support all the SEO bells and whistles without you having to recreate them.

The Open Source Story - Open Sourcing RudderStack Blog and Docs
When we decided to open-source our blog and docs, we were spoilt for choices. Today there are multiple well-supported and fully-featured frameworks for open-source content creation. Some of the options that we considered were Ghost, Jekyll, Hugo, Nanoc, and Gatsby. There are even more frameworks beyond these, and each tool has its pros and cons. Which one do we recommend? Well, we don’t. The best tool for you is the one that fulfills your requirements.

What do you use for public publishing your Zettlekasten?
My websites use a static site generator, that means I have folders of Markdown files and they get converted by this program to HTML. (I'm using nanoc for nearly a decade, but other generators work fine. I like Ruby, so that's why I never tried any of the new JS stuff.) I don't just hit publish on my whole Zettelkasten, but that would work as well if you point your static site generator to your note archive.
