Design of This Website
Sorry, that's not minimalism. gwern.net isn't either; I'd call that "brutalism" instead.
THIS is minimalism: https://manuel.kiessling.net
Precisely in the sense of "NOT a lot going on at all times". Just the content, presented pleasently.
And importantly, it's not only minimalism in look-and-feel, but also technically: even a long post with an embedded image like https://manuel.kiessling.net/2021/05/02/tutorial-react-singl... weighs in at under 200 KiB. Loads in under 3 seconds even on "slow 3G" in Chrome. 362 milliseconds via my office's wifi.
Also, no JavaScript. Nothing moves or jumps. Perfectly usable and consumable in a CLI browser like Lynx.
All of that without looking brutalist.

Technical blogging in the era of Stack Overflow
It’s also a great extension of a CV, at least I see my https://manuel.kiessling.net blog that way.

Small B Blogging (2018)
I have a very oldschool "FTP webspace" with Ionos (from 1&1) - it's really just your run-of-the-mill static website hosting package, basically unchanged since the late nineties.
Well, it surely changed a lot under the hood from the provider's perspective, I assume, but from the user's perspective, it works as it has always worked: you have a domain, you have an (S)FTP account, you upload your static HTML/CSS files, et voilá, you have a homepage/blog.
I create my HTML/CSS locally using Hugo. The source for my homepage and its blog posts can be seen at https://github.com/manuelkiessling/manuel.kiessling.net.
Super simple, no headaches, no downtimes. Less than 4 bucks per month.
I do depend on Ionos, of course, but as it's only HTML and CSS, it with every web site hosting solution on the planet.
I also depend on Hugo, of course, but Hugo is open source, and I've even stored the Hugo binaries for different platforms locally.
My homepage is at https://manuel.kiessling.net/.

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.)
