Gatsby vs. Hugo
Gatsby
cons:
- needed me to create a
<Gist />
component just to be able to embed gists from Github - more complex setup for beginners. If you're not a React developer, forget it
- custom file formats like
.jsx
and.mdx
. Hugo files are just.html
for templates and.md
for posts - because of custom formats, the content is not as portable as it is with Hugo. Moving into Gatsby is easy, i just copy my markdown content. Moving out could become a nightmare. Even with Hugo, if you search for migrating from Hugo to WordPress you'll hardly get any results.
