The current loopback.io website stack leverages Jekyll. Although it has, and continues to, meet our needs for hosting a simple website, there are certain issues which makes it unsustainable in the long-term:

  1. Unfamiliarity of Ruby and Jekyll among the maintainers
  2. Slow build times
  3. Inability to use component-based, modern front-end development workflows
  4. Legacy baggage

In alignment with the earlier blog modernisation effort, this issue is to track rewriting the current website in a modern, Node.js-based stack.

Currently, prototyping work is being done with Next.js.

I wonder.. since our blog site is using Docusaurus, would we also consider that for this site as well?
