blogcpp is a static blog generator.
blogcpp is written in modern C++, resulting in a fast build speed, reducing the need for workarounds like incremental builds or advanced caching mechanisms while compiling. blogcpp tries to use as many CPU cores as possible to achieve the maximum speed on your machine.
blogcpp aims to provide a decent feature set without requiring too much configuration; in fact, it would work right out of the box
This is free and open source software. It’s no longer developed.
