PlutoPages is a static site generator built around Julia and Pluto notebooks. It turns a directory containing notebooks, Markdown, HTML, images, stylesheets, and other assets into a complete website.
The software supports Julia-powered templates and can render Pluto notebooks as HTML. Sites can be previewed locally during development and deployed using services such as GitHub Pages or Netlify.
This is free and open source software.
