I use webpage generation (including blogs) using Jekyll. Since I wanted
to stick to org, all is set-up in a way, that the ``content'' including
the blogs is done in org, and then do ``org-publish'' to generate stuff
as fit for consumption for jekyll and the workflow then continues from
there (basically just invoking jekyll to ``publish'' the stuff). jekyll
expects its content in md, but I feel more comfortable with org.

That leads to a two stage thing: first translate org to md (by an
appropriate org-publish set-up) and then generate the web-page from the
md-files. So it's not all org-workflow, but once it's set-up, it's
basically only org as far as content is concerned.


Fine points apply, as jekyll has a lot of moving parts and
configurations. And possible pictures and graphics etc. is also not ``in
org''- And actually, the org-files I am using have some jekyll-specific
md-prefix between

+begin_export markdown
+end_export

to tweak things for jekyll. But the org-part is easy, and for me it
works smooth. 


In a different response, HUGO was mentioned. I don't have experience
with HUGO, but it's probably comparable to jekyll.
