WordPress as Static Site Generator

I used to do this, while the setup is a bit simpler:

  - Use wordpress.com instead of self hosting WP.
  - Get a webhook call to a Cloud Function (GCP's Lambda equivalent) and import the HTML.
  - Put it to the static generator (Hugo) data on GitHub.
  - The CI setup for the blog kicks in to publish it.

I prefer WYSIWYG over text editor while I'd like to own my data. So this worked very well.
