Static Site Generators

obelisk – static site generator

obelisk is a static site generator.

There’s support for themes to customize a site with various themes.

This is free and open source software.

The goals of the project are:

  • Fast. Static websites can take a long time to generate when they start to grow large. obelisk should take advantage of Elixir’s processes to increase this speed.
  • Simple, Obvious. It should be very straight forward to add new content and modify the way that your site works.
  • Templatable. It should be possible to store templates in github repos and reference them directly, allowing modification of the look and feel of a site instantaneously with no manual installation.
