I'm a full stack web developer who has been freelancing for the last 20 years. I write about everything from development to production and also have video courses on my site!
I run my site (200+ published posts, lots of additional pages, etc.) with Jekyll and I've occasionally looked for alternatives but I haven't found anything that works as well as Jekyll for what I want in a static site generator.
To me the "best" would be:
It's really fast in development. In Jekyll's case, even through WSL and 200+ posts with using Jekyll-Assets, I can see my changes locally in 1.5 seconds on save.
It lets me use SCSS without much set up. In Jekyll's case, that's standard.
It md5 tags all of my assets so I can cache all assets at the web server level. Jekyll-Assets takes care of that without having to do anything special.
It lets me create custom tags and filters. I have a bunch and Jekyll makes it super easy to do this since it's just Ruby (I have Ruby experience).
It lets me structure my site in a sane way using template layouts and includes, etc.. Jekyll supports all of that, so it's easy to make modular pages.
