I have not, but I will. I may also look at Zola, although it, too, appears at the surface level to be tightly coupled with markdown.
It's just Go templates, which are pretty solid; I'd be surprised by any bugs, unless they're in the Hugo short codes. The syntax is challenging, even if you're a Go developer and use it all the time. It's a bespoke DSL, and a pretty awful one: it's verbose, obtuse, and makes some common things hard.
Go is my language of choice, but my faith gets shaky whenever I have to use templates.
I'm not a huge fan of Python; despite its popularity, it's got a lot of problems, not least of which is the whole Python 2/3 fiasco; which, years later, is still plaguing us. However, if I can containerized it so it isn't constantly breaking in the background when I do a system update, I'm not opposed to using a project written in it. At least it isn't Node; I won't let that crap onto any server I admin.
Edit: Zola has the same problem as Hugo.
