mkws(1)Efficient Static Site Generator
Simple
mkws(1) is as simple as it gets when it
comes to static site generators while staying very powerful, it uses
pp(1) under the
hood which leverages the power of the
sh(1)
command language interpreter.
One Language
Forget custom languages, custom templates,
CSS preprocessing languages,
write all your HTML
templates, unpreprocessed CSS
or any other templating needs in
POSIX
compliant
sh(1).
For small, simple websites, it's enough.
Blazing Fast
Blazing fast both in rendering and development speed.
Because pp(1)
uses
sh(1) you already have a
REPL in your terminal, that
means you can test your commands there and just paste them in your
templates. Also, your experience with the UNIX environment will
translate. Rendering means just translating your templates to
sh(1) code and running it.
Highly Extensible
Running on
pp(1)
templates, mkws(1)
can use any UNIX utility inside its templates. You can use existing
ones, or write your own. Also, you can modify the generator or extend
it yourself, in fact it's recommended.
Minimal Dependencies
mkws(1)'s only dependencies are
pp(1) and
lmt(1)
from
lts(5)
both of which are included in the download archives as
statically compiled portable binaries.
POSIX Compliant
mkws(1) is POSIX compliant and highly
portable.
