I think the main reason was the built in syntax highlighting, and simplicity. I've decided to move away from themes, and just code simple CSS by hand - so Zola kind of fits that mindset.

Hugo definitely has more features. If you think you'll want to do some complex hierarchies in your blog/site, or want a lot of themes to pick from I'd go with Hugo.

Hopefully that helps!

Edit: I think Hugo used to require Pygments (a pip package), but it looks like that's no longer the case. If it did that probably nudged me towards Zola too.
