Aashir , the reason devs are getting excited because they find it useful, find something new to learn and upskill. When you will work in good enterprises, you will realize their requirements are a bit complex. They strive for faster, secure sites and ultimately better user experience; and static sites generators tick all the boxes.

Some SSGs generate PWAs out of the box (dev.to is a PWA). Did you ever wonder why did dev.to come up their own solution and not simply use an opensource forum software? If not think about it, research more about PWAs , read more about user experience and the case studies involving PWAs.

You should get your answer!

Sounds great! Key to growing up is to be open minded. You are young and are already on the right path, keep learning!! Try to get active in wpgraphql and Gatsby I am sure you will come to love and understand the benefits of SSGs and PWAs :)
