Summary
There are those who describe Netlify as “GitHub Pages on Steroids”. If that’s the case then Hugo on Netlify must be digging into Lance Armstrong's stash. Netlify now supports building static sites with the popular open-source static site generator Hugo, offering faster build times compared to other generators. Hugo is a high-performance static site generator written in Go, which results in faster build times due to its ability to produce statically compiled binaries and support for high-performance async IO operations.
