Hey Junior! We use Jekyll for the Pratt Institute Libraries <https://library.pratt.edu/> site and it has eased a TON of my workflows (github <https://github.com/ndease/prattlib-site-jekyll>). I really appreciate how quickly I can make big changes. The blogging system is really simple and effective also. However, the best feature IMHO is that you can develop on any machine and quickly preview changes without having to fiddle with your server or worry about CMS maintenance. If you haven't seen this article before, I recommend that you check out Using static web technologies and git-based workflows to re-design and maintain a library website (quickly) with non-technical staff <https://doi.org/10.1080/10691316.2021.1887036> (2021). Their website on Lib-Static methodology <https://lib-static.github.io/> is also really interesting.
