Build a Serverless Production-Ready Blog

Out of all of the SSG's that I've wanted to try out (looked at a bunch but haven't really used any yet), Hexo looks the most attractive. You can also install a webui front end for it called Hexo Admin, which gives it an apparently very Ghost-like appearance and composition feel.

I wonder however, if those who set up their own CI and S3 and Cloudfront for https, know that they can just do all this for free with just Git and Netlify... Sure simplifies the process/# of pieces.
