Hmmm, that looks pretty technical to me...
Any chance of doing something nice and easy in WordPress or similar?
Just asking :-)
I cannot speak for those owning this project.
Hugo is most certainly a much simpler solution from a maintenance
perspective. Wordpress (and similar CMSes) is a nightmare to maintain
and always devolves into a mess of plugins (that everyone is too afraid
to change/deactivate for fear of breaking the site), custom PHP snippets
galore, horrible WYSIWYG battles, and a general feeling of dread for
ever updating/changing Wordpress. So long as reliance on JavaScript is
kept to a minimum, this will be a win for libreoffice.org's
maintainability and performance (and likely SEO).
As for Git, this technical barrier is a downside for those unfamiliar:
Those in charge of content may very well not be comfortable with Git.
I should hope that the owners of this project solicited feedback from
those in charge of the site content. It's important that they are
comfortable with such a workflow.
If it weren't for merge conflicts and other VCS-isms I would argue that
learning simple markdown files + a Git GUI would be miles simpler that
learning how to use Wordpress... :)
