Blogging Like a Hacker (2008)
Personally I made my own static site generator [1][2], which has been a lot of fun, and fairly easy to implement (you just need a solid markdown to html converter, preferrably going further than commonmark standards).
For hosting I use the free tier of Firebase... `Firebase deploy` and Voila. You get not only free hosting but the ability to revert and free around the globe CDN. Pretty darn fast.

Ask HN: What's the simplest static website generator?
Hugo comes out of the box with headers and footers, but you'll probably want to grep around a bit before you understand them fully. I can still recommend my https://github.com/Siilikuin/minimum-viable-hugo as a decent way to get started with a "gears first" approach to Hugo, even though recent developments have made it a bit outdated (in a good way!).

Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform
I like Hugo a lot, personally.
If you want to go as minimal as possible, my https://github.com/Siilikuin/minimum-viable-hugo gets you set up with a single no-CSS, no-JS HTML page. I found this pretty ideal for staying to learn the platform.

Blogging Like a Hacker (2008)
I like Hugo. It's been a gateway drug into building more interesting websites than just a blog for me. Giving you RSS feeds out of the box is a lovely bonus.
Both my personal website https://andrew-quinn.me/ and my TIL site run on Hugo: https://hiandrewquinn.github.io/til-site/
Most recently I used Hugo to create a backup archive of the Finnish broadcast news, plus translations, which was all in all very easy thanks to its i18n support: https://hiandrewquinn.github.io/selkouutiset-archive/
I even gave a presentation at the local university to first year CS students who wanted to get Hugo up and running. It was a big success!
I wrote https://github.com/Siilikuin/minimum-viable-hugo a while back to turn setting it up into a simple copy-and-paste operation. You might get some use out of it.

Course for Hugo SSG Incl. CSS and HTML-Templating
Hugo's documentation is rather awful hence explanations like https://github.com/Siilikuin/minimum-viable-hugo or https://dabase.com/e/04066/ I found this course to be a thorough explanation of the required templates, how to style etc. (where CSS and the whole frontend have stayed mysterious to me for years).
- Minimum Viable Hugo
- Minimum Viable Hugo – No CSS, no JavaScript, 1 static HTML page to start you off
- I remade my minimum viable Hugo repository. No CSS, no JS, no BS. Just clear commands to serve 1 page of clear, pristine HTML.
