Griffin is a very small, convenient, and extremely fast static site generator.
Griffin takes an opinionated approach to static site generation, making some decisions for you to ensure that you get the best performance possible.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Blazing fast. Thousands of pages of content render in under 10 seconds.
- Just three main commands to do everything.
- Support for tags as the taxonomical unit. Each post and page can have a list of tags. And each tag gets its own index page with all the posts under it.
- Built-in support for social media links.
- Includes an embedded Undertow server for live-previewing your site.
- Pagination support for index pages built in, with proper previous/next page support. You can specify the number of posts each index page will contain in the config.toml file.
- Easy theming using handlebars.java, which is similar to the widely popular handlebars.js templating engine.
- Support for syntax highlighting with fenced code blocs and language specification using highlight.js as of now. It supports over 125 languages and 63 styles.
- Per-post featured images.
