Every single time I am ready to drop Hugo (got as far as a Statamic test deploy last night) they add something I’ve been wanting bad.

Today’s 0.83 release adds WebP support for image processing.

[deep sigh]

We’ll see.

Had a clumsy model name in this app that I finally got to refactor out to something more communicative. Oh the cognitive relief!

@tek Mostly the templating language. When I started, there was a HAML-ish option, but for their own sanity they cut templates down to just go’s built-in system.

@tek and in a similar maintenance cleanup they deprecated an extended Markdown parser called Blackfriday in favor of Goldmark, which is more constrained.

Goldmark’s gotten cooler since, but I was using lots of Blackfriday features so that got me a bit crabby.
