Generating static pages and blogs with Jekyll
Text Monster
Most people starting a blog will almost automatically turn to WordPress, which calls for PHP, a database, and regular security updates … and thus a lot of attention. With the small Jekyll template engine, you can avoid all that.
Even with a powerful server, it makes sense to compile an Internet site from static pages, whether to reduce load on the server for high-traffic pages or to minimize the risk of attacks.
Maintaining all the subpages by hand, however, can become a Sisyphean task. At this point, template engines can help. They generate a complete Internet site consisting of only static pages from the text content and a layout template. To change the layout of the entire site, you only need to replace the HTML template – without touching each page individually.
