+title: Switching my website from Jekyll to Hugo
+---
+
+I've switched from my old (and janky) Jekyll + Polymer setup to Hugo, a similar
+static content management system written in Go.  I've needed to do this for a
+very long time but I procrastinated due to a lack of interest, time, and energy.
+In this post I'll go over why I've switched, including an overview of how I was
+previously generating my website with Jekyll.
+
+<!--more-->
+
+## The old setup
+I used Jekyll for a very long time. Over the years I went through a few
+different template designs, even creating several of my own that I never
+ultimately published. I was always trying to find a balance between client-side
+functionality and compatibility / simplicity. I wanted a "modern" website with
+contemporary creature comforts (like a responsive, mobile-friendly frontend)
+that would also work with really basic web browsers. 
+
+Sometime last year I settled on [a really cool combination
+of two different templates](https://github.com/brandonsilver/jekyll-polymer/tree/customized):
+one using the Polymer front-end library with oodles of Material Design elements,
+and another very basic one of my own creation for users with JavaScript
+disabled. Building my website entailed running a gulp script, which in turn first built the
+Polymer-using version of my website (the default one), and then built the basic version. Sounds
+great, right? I finally had the best of both worlds. All of the benefits of modernity with full
+backwards compatibility.
+
+As it turned out, Polymer didn't age well. And the build tooling required to build my Polymer
+template didn't age well either. Add to that the complexity of said build tooling and its inability
+to fully optimize the final product and you get a mildly frustrated developer looking for
+alternatives.
