nixtml – static website generator

nixtml is a static website generator written entirely in Nix.

It transforms Markdown content into HTML and integrates directly with Nix flakes. Websites can use configurable layouts, reusable partials, collections, pagination, taxonomies and RSS feeds. Templates may be written with nixtml’s functional HTML helpers or as regular Nix strings.

This is free and open source software.
