beauhilton.com, source code at git.beauhilton.com and https://github.com/cbeauhilton/beauhilton.com 

Migrated from https://romanzolotarev.com/ssg.html. 

My site design is mostly copy-pasta from your stuff, still plenty I want to mess around with, but great experience out of the box!

Using caretaker to auto rebuild as I edit, maybe that’s worth mentioning: https://github.com/grego/caretaker

It’s a little handy Rust app from grego, specify folders to watch and commands to run when changes are found. (He also built an SSG called blades, I was playing around with that when I found soupault and discovered it fit my brain better). See the .watch.toml file in the root directory.

Deploying with a simple rsync pre-commit hook, from the build directory to my server, see hooks/

Feels faster to auto-rebuild on my machine while I’m editing, preview it there, commit when I’m done and it’s live without waiting for GitHub Actions or another CI tool (though I love those as well, just feels heavy for this particular project).

Thanks for a great tool!

Hi Beau,

Sorry for late reply. It looks a bit strange that the main page only has 
a navigation menu,
maybe add some introductory text there or move the content from /about 
to the main page?

I didn't know about caretaker, thanks for the pointer!
I'm going to include it in the tips and tricks section.

In the next soupault release I plan to add caching of asset processor 
outputs
(and other things that call external programs), so pseudo-live rebuilds 
should become even faster.

Also, do you want your website included in https://soupault.app/users/ ?
Not all people do so I prefer to ask before adding.
