Static Site Generators

Satelito – static site generator

Satelito is a static site generator.

Satelito uses Markdown (and HTML) for basic content and optionally Lua files for metadata. There is no front matter support; but Lua tables are used for storing functions that can extend the functionality of your site.

For templates, Satelito uses the Etlua templating language. It is simple but powerful, because it allows you to run Lua scripts directly in templates.

Key Features

  • Ability to create a static website from Markdown (or HTML) files.
  • Can generate pages individually or by directory.
  • Automatically creates lists of sub-pages, for all index pages.
  • Define page collection from directory or page name.
  • Automatically creates Atom/RSS syndication files, for all index pages.
  • Fast; a site with hundreds of pages can be generated in seconds.
  • Hackable thanks to Lua which can be used directly in templates or configuration files.
  • Can automatically create a sitemap.xml file.
  • Create pagination with sequential navigation.
