Static Site Generators

s2gen – static site generator

s2gen is a simple static site generator.

It uses Freemarker as a template engine and assumes that you write the content in Markdown. The generator supports the monitor mode, comes with an embedded Web server and stays completely unopinionated about organizing front-end assets.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Parsing content from Markdown files.
  • Rendering HTML using Freemarker templates.
  • Project skeleton generation.
  • Monitoring for file changes.
  • Adding target=”_blank” to external links.
  • Generating post URLs without html extensions.
  • Embedded Jetty server for easy development.
