I liked the new idea of a flat-file static html concept, but Jekyll did not appeal to me. Then, Hugo appeared on the scene and appeared to take the rightful place as the cool kid on the block. Hugo has a simple concept and drew my interest from being written in Go, but from my delay in switching, I have been able to discover a potential flaw in my workflow.
