A simple yet powerful and flexible static website and blog generator, based on doit, mako, docutils and bootstrap. I built this to power this very site you are reading, but decided it may be useful to others. The main goals of Nikola are: * Small codebase: because I don't want to maintain a big thing for my blog * Fast page generation: Adding a post should not take more that 5 seconds to build. * Static output: Deployment using rsync is smooth. * Flexible page generation: you can decide where everything goes in the final site. * Powerful templates: Uses `Mako <http://www.makotemplates.org/>`_ * Clean markup for posts: Uses `Docutils <http://docutils.sourceforge.net/>`_ * Don't do stupid builds: Uses `doit <http://python-doit.sourceforge.net/>`_ * Clean HTML output by default: Uses `bootstrap <http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/>`_ * Comments out of the box: Uses `Disqus <http://disqus.com/>`_ * Tags, with their own RSS feeds * Easy way to do a blog * Static pages outside the blog * Multilingual blog support (my own blog is english + spanish) I think this initial version achieves all of those goals, but of course, it can be improved.
