Hi HN,
This is an open source project I've worked on over weekends for a long time. The goal is to create a tool well suited for websites you expect to be around for 5 or 10+ years.
Would love any thoughts you have on it.
The reason why I decided to build this is all other (JS-based) static site generators I tried had one or of these problems:
- Built on an underlying framework like React, Vue, etc.
- Relies on complex build tools like Webpack, Babel, etc.
- Depends on a massive tree of modules that force constant maintenance
- Has interfaces, source code and documentation that cannot be understood in one sitting
- Requires that your site source be organized in a way that looks nothing like your output
- Forces a huge leap from hello world to a real world implementation
Thanks,
naansequitur
