I have an Obsidian Vault for my website, deployed via Jekyll. Obsidian is part of my current workflow for notes, documentation, and others, helping me write articles for my blog and other sites.

I chose Jekyll because Github has it by default and is supported by almost every other SSG service/platform, such as Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, etc.

This lets me write locally on Obsidian without running Jekyll to preview my website. Jekyll is slow, as I have over 1,700+ articles (last time I checked, even after pruning). I can look at other options, but that is not my focus, and I honestly do not care. I push it to GitHub, and eventually, in the next couple of minutes, it gets updated.

Right now, I'm on a slow experiment to separate the content (markdown / plain text) from the styling entirely. So, I can play around with the design and themes but leave the content. Akin to how I can move on and walk away from Obsidian if needed - a tool on top of my content.

To me, I feel that VitePress is lot cleaner, leaner, and simpler than Docusaurus - https://vitepress.dev
