Ask HN: What's the simplest static website generator?
Hugo without a theme and some simple CSS could do that.

Ask HN: What's the best place to park my inactive domains?
I would create a static site with Hugo, host the repo on GitHub and then publish it using AWS Amplify. You will probably not go over Amazon’s free tier.
If you want to quickly create a barebones Hugo site, feel free to clone this repo: https://github.com/cpach/piper
AWS Amplify is very convenient to set up.

Ask HN: Care to share your personal site?
My site is here: https://hsm.tunnel53.net/
If you want to try Hugo out, feel free to clone this repo: https://github.com/cpach/piper – It’s a very simple skeleton and you don’t even need a theme for it.
For hosting I warmly recommend AWS Amplify + GitHub.

Ask HN: Simple(st) Static Site Generator?
I find Hugo very easy to work with.
Here’s my demo site: https://github.com/cpach/piper
Only about ~30 lines of markup is needed to create a site. No theme required.
Hosting is very easy on AWS Amplify. I hear Netlify is good too.

Replatforming from Gatsby to Zola!
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.

Ask HN: What's the simplest static website 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.

Ask HN: So, static website generators and hosting in 2023/24. What's out there?
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.

The right way to build a dynamic personal website for a physics student?
(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.)
