Ask HN: What blogging framework to use in 2022

14 points by fishbotics ↗ HN
I’m thinking about starting a new blog to be hosted on GitHub pages. I’ve been out of the blog game for a while and a lot of the old static site frameworks seem like they haven’t been updated in a while. What tools are other people using for their technical blogs?

I use pandoc. My build script is under 100 lines of JS

Jekyll is an excellent choice, particularly if you are going to host on GitHub Pages!

after many failed attempts trying to use Hugo, i finally gave in and am getting started with Jekyll. so far, i've been impressed with the things it offers that i didn't even know were possible, like Liquid and built-in pagination, etc. however, being used to GitHub's very limiting flavor, i was blown away by kramdown! having the ability to use HTML and CSS formatting in .md files is a game changer.

so, i guess put me down for team Jekyll :)

+1 for hugo. Also Gatsby has some out of the box blogging solutions and also works with netlify (where you can also host github pages)
