Use https://npm.im/metalsmith (or other good npm ssg) with https://npm.im/gh-pages/... CLI. Works out of the box

NoMad141761y@webketje lower your expectations, buddy. I didn't even clone the thing, just coded on the web interface!

Bibbit7401yNever had big issues with github pages other than that I wanted way more technical functionality which meant working with jekyll, but I can see where you're coming from..
@webketje that's actually very interesting because it's something I searched for for a while o.o -
@Bibbit you just made me read this section https://npmjs.com/package/gh-pages/... which sounds so fucking over-engineered:
"Next.js does not support deploying to GitHub Pages because of an opinionated static export approach that puts all assets under a _next direcotry that GitHub Pages ignores."
Just use a {{ BASEURL }} variable jeez

I tried playing with github pages sites today.
It was, as expected, *almost* awful. Tried the toml config first, figured out after a while that shit doesn't map well between jekyll and toml config.
The themes suck but didn't want to fuck with css files. As it is on a public github repo, I can't just copy paste and clean it up.
... So much for free software to be a pain in the arse to deal with. 🙄
Still better than nothing and I guess that's the entire selling point. You suffer, but it's *for free*. 🖕
