Marmite

Marmite [Markdown makes sites] is a very! simple static site generator.

I'm a big user of other SSGs but it is frequently frustrating that it takes so much setup to get started.
Just having a directory of markdown files and running a single command sounds really useful.

How it works

It does "one" simple thing only:

• Reads all .md files on the input directory.
• Using CommonMark parse it to HTML content.
• Extract optional metadata from frontmatter or filename.
• Generated html file for each page.
• Outputs the rendered static site to the output folder.

It also handles generating or copying static/ and media/ to the output dir.
