Does Caddy support generating HTML files? I use Hugo for a few websites that I host on S3 + CloudFront and am very happy with AWS handling the back-end part this stack, and wouldn't want to switch to a server that I would now need to manage.

Caddy doesn't emit static files in this case, instead it on-the-fly transforms your .md files on disk into HTML output that it serves directly to the client. Caddy is a server first, which includes a template engine for convenience.

If your workflow with static files cached by a CDN already works for you, then this is probably not going to help you.
