Hi
There was a comparison at some point with other SSGs but keeping it up to date is too hard and there are too many with completely different paradigms, eg how do you compare something like zola to a SSG where you use React. The React one is likely going to be more flexible but much more work.
The points are really from the homepage https://www.getzola.org/ :
As for your points:
Thanks for answering these points. I really appreciate it, and zola is looking great as an SSG for me. Addressing some points:
Thanks to the zola team for giving us this great tool!
Documentation issue
Summary
This is by no means meant offensive; I am looking at various static site generators including zola, and some of them are mentioned here. I also read about zola's features.
Zola looks very nice, but I want to make an informed decision about an SSG.
Now for already involved folks this might be simple, but as a potential first-time user of "my own" SSG I wonder what actually are the advantages of zola over the others? Anyone might claim they are fast or easy, but there surely must be some more concrete distinction, otherwise none of these projects would exist.
Proposed solution
I suggest you make a short "elevator speech" paragraph or a simple comparison table somewhere on the home page or on GitHub, where you actually compare your project against other contenders, with the specific mention of advantages.
Some points, as a noob, I would be looking at is:
You see, these are very basic questions, but I am sure this project will benefit from having quick answers to these.
