Static HTML for Real-World Ontologies - from a DevX Perspective

In unserem professionellen Umfeld finden sich erstaunlich viele reale Ontologien – von Lehrveranstaltungen und Forschungsprojekten einer Professur bis hin zu den Anforderungen eines großen Softwaresystems. Static-HTML-Generatoren wie Jekyll oder Hugo eignen sich hervorragend, um solche Ontologien zu modellieren und als flexible statische Websites umzusetzen. Welche Frameworks überzeugen dabei besonders in puncto Developer Experience (DevX)?

Background

Comparing just two popular frameworks, Jekyll and Hugo, you find:

• The turnaround (generation) time of (Ruby-based) Jekyll drive you crazy when your site grows - 30 sec on a fast laptop is realistic.
• Hugo (Go based) is incredibly fast in comparison, but a hairy beast in installation and upgrading.

… and so on. In this topic, you will create a list of relevant DevX criteria, and assess suitable tools.

Research Question(s)

• What are relevant DevX criteria here?
• What tool stack works best?
• What gives you most comfort in ontology definition and maintenance?
• Where is it easy to customize themes?
