LightuePress is a static site generator powered by Lightue and snarkdown.
It’s designed for building documentation sites and other simple static websites with minimal overhead.
Unlike many static site generators, LightuePress does not require a build step, compilation, or server configuration. Create an entry HTML file, add the CDN scripts, provide the configuration, and the site can render Markdown-powered content directly in the browser.
It is similar in spirit to VuePress, VitePress, and Docsify, but focuses on being extremely lightweight and easy to deploy.
This is free and open source software.
