Nikola 3 is out and it is good.

I just released version 3 of my static site generator, Nikola

It's a major release, there is hardly any code from the previous version that was not moved, prodded, broken or fixed!

The main features of Nikola:

• Blogs, with tags, feeds, archives, comments, etc.

• Themable

• Fast builds, thanks to doit

• Flexible

• Small codebase (programmers can understand all of Nikola in a few hours)

• reStructuredText and Markdown as input languages

• Easy image galleries (just drop files in a folder!)

• Syntax highlighting for almost any programming language or markup

• Multilingual sites

• Doesn't reinvent wheels, leverages existing tools.

Changes for this release (not exhaustive!):

• New optional template argument for "nikola init"

• New "install_theme" task

• Optional address option for the "serve" task

• Better looking codeblocks

• Russian translation

• Use markdown/reSt compiler based on post extension

• Don't fail when there are no posts/stories/galleries/tags

• Use configuration options as dependencies

• Use more relative links for easier site rellocation

• Syntax highlight for markdown

• Better multicore builds (make the -n 2 or -n 4 options work)

• Configurable output folder

• Don't fail on posts with periods in the name

• Different page names for different languages

• Recognize (some) Mako template dependencies

• Is now a more "normal" python package.
