Key Features
- Generate static XML/HTML documents: easy to deploy, fewer security problems.
- Handling of blog posts, with dates, topics, keywords and associated RSS feeds.
- No new syntax.
- Based on a XML rewrite engine allowing the application of substitutions (rewrite rules) on some tags. Some substitutions are pre-defined, and others can be defined in your documents or added by plugins. Content can then be written with semantic tags.
- Supports multi-language sites.
- Many predefined functions can be used to handle sectioning, table of contents, verified cross-references, and more.
- OCaml code can be interpreted at compilation time and the result included in the generated documents, which is nice to write tutorials on OCaml libraries.
- Plugins ease the inclusion of graphviz graphs, and pictures generated by Aysmptote or LaTeX,.
- Markdown plugin converts markdown sources.
- Developed in OCaml and can be extended with OCaml plugins, but there is no need to know about OCaml to use Stog.
