Show HN: Hyloblog – minimal, Git-based SSG for writing (not theming)
hyloblog.com
We're working on Xr0 [0] and have been building a static-site generator that meets our tastes and needs. The basic emphasis is on simplicity and content rather than customisability and feature-richness. We are imitating Jekyll and Hugo (and other SSGs) in their basic generation paradigm and LaTeX in its separating form from content, but attempting to combine these into a unified, minimal philosophy where you can open a repo and start writing without needing a CLI tool to generate your folder for you.
The project is broken into two applications: an SSG you can run locally (or in a GH Action etc.) and a platform for easy hosting that bundles in some basic audience interaction features. Both are available on GitHub: [1] and [2].
We've been working on this somewhat sporadically for the past couple of months, and it is very much a WIP, particularly in the themes it offers, but we're keen to hear thoughts on this.
