Static Site Generators are all the rage now in web dev

I am happy to share that I finally managed to move my devs so we can re-write Beginner’s Guide to Static Site Generators this time with FREE DOWNLOADABLE 📄 pdf!
http://bit.ly/2KYAHx7

We've covered it all...how to begin, the best features, and use cases for the most popular static site generators.
There is no other guide in the Jamstack space. Have a look and let me know what you think.

    You should make sure to SvelteKit (Sapper)! Definitely my personal go to nowadays, as I much prefer Svelte over React or Vue or whatever else.

      Svelte makes me cum

    2. 1

      Thx for the heads up. While it was on our radar we did not have the time to explore it properly. But with the next take on this we surely will.

      Might want to watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSfdtmcZ4d0 was very interesting talks about the future of Svelte

      1. 1

        Yep that's why I said sveltekit. I watched that live and am very excited for the future!

          Ah is that what they're calling it (watched the vid a while ago) I knew they was replacing sapper.

    For people knowing Ruby, I recommend staying with Jekyll. I wrote about my transition out of WordPress. If you really need "modern front-end", there is a Jekyll fork Bridgetown.

    Gatsby and Next user here! :wave:

    1. 2

      NextJS as of now.

    2. 1

      What is it? more Gatsby or more Next?

      1. 1

        I guess they both have their upsides. Some people smarter than me have been moving towards next.js, so i think I’ll stick to that for some time now.

        1. 1

          yeah...next is on fire these days...but I hear a lot of exciting dev stuff for Gatsby will be soon out.

    The illustrations are beautiful!

      Thx...we try :-)
