Hexo - a static site generator

Hexo advertises itself as

A fast, simple & powerful blog framework

I haven’t tried it myself, so I can’t judge whether it is fast, but from what I’ve read in the Docs section it really is simple.

Similary to Metalsmith, it is installed using npm and is really extensible, although, it seems, to a lesser extent.

It supports internationalisation, has ~390 community themes, generates RSS feeds, supports multiple syntaxes for writing blog posts. In short, everything you need from an SSG.

The docs provide answers to most questions one might have and devs are kind enough to suggest opening an issue on Github if you don’t see a solution to something there.

Share your thoughts in the comments. It’s extra appreciated if you have been using Hexo for a while and can provide useful feedback for others to consider when choosing a static site generator.
