I will admit the serpentos.com/ repo is a total hack. It was an 
effort
in running away from Hugo as quickly as possible for ease of 
maintenance
whilst getting things going quickly.

It lazily rebuilds a cache DB from hugo-compatible-ish markdown 
files and
processes them for rendering using a simple diet template. It's 
been running
for months now so I'm happy with it.

The new infra projects make use of vibe.d+moss-service, for 
authenticaton+
authorisation management with EdDSA JWTs and such. Very fluid 
right now as
we define the architecture but the plan is to have rolling builds 
very very
soon.
