Hello,

yesterday I've been at an interesting presentation of pelican (it was a
git+pelican+fabric gramework), in order to create static websites and I
very much appreciated the topic. I had also recently had a look at jekill
(which looks kinda promising), but discovered that there is a whole "world"
of static site generators described at the page
https://staticsitegenerators.net/ among which some look also interesting to
me in case of customizations because just based on shell scripts and not on
python/java/perl/etc in which I am not fluent: I am starting from the basic
bashblog to more complex like rawk, baker, simsalabash.

After a quick peek on openports I have seen pelican present, but couldn't
identify more. On hugo webpage there's a package for OpenBSD
https://github.com/spf13/hugo/releases

Did you have success experiences with them or similar products on OpenBSD
(e.g. octopress, jekyll, etc)? What would you advice to build a static site
which should sport light but sexy template (e.g. scroll effects), multiple
pages, pictures and some media links (like embedded youtube videos, for
instance)? Use of googleforms would be a bonus.

Also, on source language: although being asciidoc present in OpenBSD,
markdown seems at the moment the "industry standard". In ports, besides
python version of markdown, I've found a really interesting C port of it,
named "discount". Do you have had any previous experience with it and would
you suggest it instead of plain python version?

Thanks
