Firstly this is super cool and much simpler than other SSGs, but whilst I applaud the stand against "convention over configuration", I read the docs and find all the magic. Files starting with underscore are ignored? Where was the configuration for that? Oh yeah, that's just a convention.
Then there's the magic for "_inherit.yaml", which -- by convention of this tool -- is treated specially.
You can't have it both ways.
- kasbah 11y agoI would view this as files with underscore being special and that is the convention. Being ignored is just the default special behaviour. Maybe in a future version there would be another file that does something more than being ignored.
- edmundhuber 11y agoYou're absolutely right. I guess it's hard to be entirely magic-free. In this case, I'm pretty happy with the underscores thing since it's one pretty simple rule. Happy to hear alternatives, though. :)
