Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform
A lot of great suggestions here and some stuff Iβve never heard of before!
Throwing my own suggestion into the ring, as I was just looking into this last week.
I started setting up a blog using Hexo. Itβs another Node based SSG that uses markdown and supports tags. It has a lot of neat plugins that people have developed, too.
I like it so far!

Hexo, WebFinger and better discoverability
In my case, the latter is not possible because this blog is a static site, generated via Hexo and hosted on GitHub. It simply lacks a modifiable active server component.

Building a static blog using Jekyll & Strapi
To make their creation easier, numerous open-source static websites generators are available: Jekyll, Hugo, Gatsby, Hexo, etc. Most of the time, the content is managed through static (ideally Markdown) files or a Content API. Then, the generator requests the content, injects it in templates defined by the developer and generates a bunch of HTML files.

who is self-hosting a static website and what are you using to build it?

I suggest you to try out eleventhy (https://www.11ty.dev/)

A production flag enables you to run activities in dev or production such as minifying assets, showing draft posts, etc. There isn't a built-in flag or function that comes with eleventy (11ty) specifically for this. However we have this info at our fingertips.

Removing React is just weakness leaving your codebase
Itβs 2024, and you are about to start a new project. Do you reach for React, a framework you know and love or do you look at one of the other hot new frameworks like Astro, Enhance, 11ty, SvelteKit or gasp, plain vanilla Web Components?

Why You Should Write Your Own Static Site Generator
https://doublejosh.com/post/186193119278/metalsmithjs-is-sti...
Then two years ago I needed a more robust SSR system based on React, so I went with GatsbyJS. It's insanely mature and intuitive, but as we all know that community and business is now drying up too. But the framework is still great.
Now everyone sings the praises of NextJS, which can be used for SSR but is intended for applications and active server endpoints. But more complexity doesn't mean better.
I'm keen to try other simple frameworks when the result is a static site. I may give https://www.11ty.dev a shot.
