Build a Better Blog with a Static Site Generator
Offered By: Pluralsight
Course Description
Overview
Make your blog load faster than your reader can blink with a static website generator without resorting to hand written HTML.
Readers hate slow loading websites, and your blog is no exception! The fastest blog response times possible come from sites that simply serve up pre-rendered files. You don’t want to hand code HTML, of course, so you need a static site generator that lets you write simple Markdown that is rendered to fully templated and styled web pages.
