The only thing I don't like about SSGs is the need to be on a computer that have the right software installed: I use different computers and sometimes I just want to add some link into my website. This leads to too much work for just a link.

I've been interested in [1], that is written in Rust and is available in a single binary. This eases the installation process.

Something interesting to consider are client-side site generators. I don't think there's a lot of them, but if you want to write your articles on markdown files on github/vim and update your website with a git push, it's a nice thing to consider. I wrote my own tiny one because it's fun (and it works just right for me), but see [2] and [3] if you're interested in these type of solutions. They work well with Github Pages.

...or you could just use whichever one you want, and set up a CI/CD pipeline to automatically run the build process and publish changes.

Small up-front time cost, then you can just make your change wherever and let the system do the rest.

I just wrote about using Pelican inside of CodeBuild on Friday: https://lastweekinaws.com/blog/aws-codebuild-as-a-publishing...

What about something/webserver that will just parse/interpret/serve markdown files themselves? I think Harp.js can do this?

Well, you can add Netlify CMS to your statically generated web site. That adds a configurable admin web interface through which you can add or edit your pages without installing the generator on the computer you are currently using.
