  • meilisearch-go

    Golang wrapper for the Meilisearch API

    Thanks for this question!

    Back in early 2020, Meilisearch did not have a Rust client library, but it did have a Go client library[1], and there was nothing comparable to lib/pq[1] in the Rust ecosystem which would allow me to create a listener on a table.[3]

    Go is generally my "fallback language" when something would not be practical to do in Rust; it has a very nice, mature ecosystem, and as long as you aren't condemning yourself to interface{} hell, it remains in my eyes a perfectly capable and reasonably ergonomic alternative for well-defined use cases.

  • Hugo

    The world’s fastest framework for building websites.

    I'm afraid I couldn't make that argument with a straight face.

    I would recommend that you go with something like Hugo[1], throw it on an S3(-compatible) bucket and be done with.[2]

    [2] This is what I have been doing for my personal blog and for my wife's professional website for many years and I am very content with it

  • astro

    Astro is the all-in-one web framework designed for speed 🏝️✨

    I did that too, but would never use Hugo for any website again!

    Instead, I would now use Astro[1] for any static site or blog.

    YMMV, but if you don't already love golang and their weird template language, Astro is just HTML and TypeScript and is overall simpler and less time-consuming to understand.

    (I mean it will get hella complicated if you want it to, and let you integrate React or Svelte or blah blah, but out of the box it works great for generating static sites like blogs, or just regular-ass websites.)
