Static Site Generators

Exposé – simple static site generator for photoessays

Exposé is a simple static site generator for photoessays.

The script operates on your current working directory, and outputs a _site directory.

Exposé is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Draft mode, where only a single low resolution is encoded. This can be used for a quick preview or for layout purposes.
  • Adding text – the text associated with each image is read from any text file with the same filename as the image.
  • Sorting – images are sorted by alphabetical order. To arbitrarily order images, add a numerical prefix.
  • Organization – put images in folders to organize them. The folders can be nested any number of times, and are also sorted alphabetically. The folder structure is used to generate a nested html menu. To arbitrarily order folders, add a numerical prefix to the folder name. Any numerical prefixes are stripped from the url.
  • Text metadata.
  • Templating.
