LSI for Jekyll can get slow and did not produce satisfying results for my site. I therefore wrote my own little, largely simplified plug-in hand-tailored for my needs, that does the same job quite well and quite fast.

The static site generator Jekyll stores tags site-wide. You need a little Ruby code if you want to want to maintain them per-language instead, as you would want on a multi-lingual site. In a previous post "Multilingual Web Sites with Jekyll" I had described how to set up a site with Jekyll supporting documents in multiple languages. One thing that was still missing was support for tags respectively keywords.

After waiting years on my TODO list I recently decided to tackle the project "web site". Since I no longer work for Imperia I was looking for a light-weight alternative. I did not want to install PHP on my server, ruling out a lot of options. A colleague finally recommended Jekyll. Its simple semi-static approach reminded me of Imperia and I decided to give it a shot.
