I've been thinking about moving this Pelican blog that you're reading over to Django.

Parts of it already come from a Django database: the publications list and CV depend on a version of a Django app that once powered vermontcomplexsystems.org.

I looked around on the internet, and of course this isn't a new idea. Here a few examples:

• django-distill
  • ✅ up to date, with example project that is deployed to netlify
  • 47/100 on snyk, much lower than I would have thought!
• django-bakery
  • ✅ up to date
  • Built and maintained (originally) by Los Angeles Times Data Desk.
  • 66/100 on snyk
• django-freeze
  • ✅ up to date
  • 72/100 on snyk
• django-staticgen
  • 🚫 very out ot date
  • 39/100, should be lower? Django scores a 94, so that's good.
• Cactus
  • 🚫 very out ot date
• django-medusa that I saw referenced by (a very old version of) wagtail cms
  • 🚫 From the README on the project, which is archived: Note: This project is largely unmaintained since 2014 and may be broken.
  • Recommends The alsoicode/django-medusa fork, by Brandon Taylor.
    • 🚫 Still very out of date
• could just use wget!

A few of the examples I found from "jamstack", like this: https://jamstack.org/generators/cactus/. Interesting project itself.

Looks like django-distill is quite nice!
