Hugo is our static site generator (SSG) of choice. It's **really quick**. After using it on a number of [client projects](/showcase/hartwell-insurance/), it became clear that our new site _had_ to be built with Hugo.
|
||||
|
||||
The big benefit of an SSG is how it moves all the heavy lifting to the build time.
|
||||
|
||||
For example in WordPress, all the category pages are created at runtime, generating a lot of database queries. In Hugo, the paginated category pages are created at build time - so all the computational complexity is done once, and doesn't impact the user at all.
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly, instead of running a live, or even a heavily cached Instagram feed that checked for new photos on page load, we used IFTTT to flip the feature to work performantly. I've [written about it](https://www.trysmudford.com/blog/making-the-static-dynamic-instagram-importer/) in detail on my blog but in essence: IFTTT sends a webhook to a Netlify Cloud Function every time a photo is uploaded. The function scrapes the photo and commits it to our GitHub repo which triggers a Hugo build on Netlify, deploying the site immediately!
|
||||
|
||||
Shortcodes allow copy editors to continue using WordPress-esque features, Markdown keeps our developers happy, and our users don't have any of the database overheads. It's win-win!
