Why I choose to stick with Jeckyll

[fstasi]

GitHub pages natively supports Jekyll as a statice site generator.

When it comes to generate a static site out of .MD files compelling alternatives exist, such as Hugo and Gatsby, but I decided not to change the technology I use to write this blog.

In fact I see some advantages in the GitHub pages + Jeckyll combo that for my use case outweigh the cons:

• I don't have to manage the build/deploy pipeline
• It allowed me to experiment with Visual studio containers
• technology gain in marginal (reference to Peopleware book)
