Migrate to a static generator.

[hernangonzalez]

Hi,

I've been browsing the codebase, as I would like to propose some changes, yet it seems to me the current approach is somewhat over-engineered for its goal.

I would like to propose we use a tool like Zola or Hugo to write the content in simple to maintain markdown files, and let the theme and workflows generate the final site.

I believe this change would benefit in the following ways:

• Less overhead to maintain.
• Less overhead to onboard (no need to learn yew, or know node)
• We can focus only on writing content with a simple syntax.
• An easier way to maintain may help bring more

I have a couple of examples in my public repos, will share some links.

Many thanks, H.

For me it's not a bad idea, in Rust Lang en Español's blog we are using a custom solution using Leptos.

But the idea of using Zola or Hugo is not bad, simplify a lot of work using it.

SGTM. For the moment this site was developed the focus used to be learning about Rust + Wasm on the Web.

But in terms of goals, I believe static site generators are more suitable for use cases where you want to focus in content publishing, were you publish posts or documentation based on some markdown/template.

In this particular case, we are developing a landing page with informational purposes.

If theres no plans on adding content I would even go with pure HTML/CSS & JavaScript, for simplicity.

Great, I think we are pretty much aligned then. Thank you, I will get started and raise a PR.
