Hi,

I’m interested in setting up a small static-site-generator site. Looked at 11ty recently and feel pretty uncomfortable with the amount of javascript and “funny language” churn just to make some html happen.

Do you know of any alternative that’s simpler / easier / less complicated dependencies? Or do you have an approach to 11ty that you think I should try?

Thanks in advance for any input, it’s appreciated!

    This might be what you’re looking for: Zola

    Single binary that lets you keep your markdown/config in git and just build it from the git clone folder you’re in at the time.

    I know some people that have moved off of Hugo to this, and Alex from the Selfhosted podcast recently talked about it on their show.

      Thank you for the recommendation! Zola looks promising.
