 Making and managing this personal website has been an adventure.
 In this series, I go over the technical challenges I've encountered
 and philosophical decisions I've made,
 and I review some of the tools I've used along the way.

 On the one hand, Hugo provides the convenient `.TableOfContents` variable
-at the cost of control, unlike Zola, where we had to do it manually.
-On the other hand, Hugo doesn't use block-based templates
-and hence lacks a nice inheritance system like Zola's.

+Hugo can do [Zola-style blocks](https://gohugo.io/templates/base/),

+EDIT: There exists an SSG called [Soupault](https://soupault.app/)
+that has interesting alternative take on site generation.
+Its creator [pitched it to me](https://lobste.rs/s/x2bknz/adventures_making_my_website_static_site#c_cgemzs),
