Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform
In future, if you want to move from Jekyll to something else, you just have to worry about that `_posts` and `_assets` folder. They may have different naming convention but you can just config-managed it or change it to your choice. This is why I suggested owning that two yourself.
You also may not worry about FrontMatter[3] (meta in the header) and its accompanying jazz by asking Jekyll to use the plugins `jekyll-optional-front-matter` and `jekyll-titles-from-headings`. These comes as part of the officially supported Jekyll plugins[4] by Github. That way, you are just writing a human-readable plain-text spiced up with Markdown and readable by almost every other Static Site Generator.
Now, play with the `_config.yml` that Jekyll generates for you from the theme above to define your post dates, navigation, and others. Jekyll is one of the OGs — the Gandalf of Static Site Generators. If you have a problem, someone somewhere has solved that.
Did I missed something? I was supposed to write a blog article for my website on this one and this comment will serve as my starting bullet points.

How to run Jekyll on Kubernetes
I created my blog using Jekyll, a great open-source tool that can transform your markdown content into a simple, old-fashioned-but-trendy, static site. What are the advantages of this approach? The site is super-light, super-fast, super-secure and SEO-friendly. Of course, it’s not always the best solution, but for some use cases, like a simple personal blog, it’s really a good option.

Tech Debt: My Rust Library Is Now a CDO
Guess I'm one of the annoying users who complained when armin's Lektor (https://github.com/lektor/lektor) started going dormant back when, but I loved it for a while. I'm on Astro now, but a big thanks for helping a younger version for me.

The theory versus the practice of “static websites”
Lektor CMS is sort of a prototype-ish thing doing this: https://www.getlektor.com/
It has (used to have? Can't find them on the site now) pre-packaged binaries that you would drop into a folder structure generated by the technically-minded person, and the content editor can simply click on that binary, which opens the backend of the CMS in the web browser, make changes and click deploy.

A SvelteKit template for building CMS-free editable websites
Static hosting could be enough for many sites and one could combine the technical and UX advantages of your dynamic interface with the advantages of static sites for security and distribution.
I found that useful when i worked with https://www.getlektor.com/ years ago. In lektor the dynamic part runs on a users desktop machine, but it of course wouldn't need to.
