Nikola v8.0.4 is out!

On behalf of the Nikola team, I am pleased to announce the immediate availability of Nikola v8.0.4. This release fixes a few small bugs, including a date glitch that appeared around New Year’s Eve.

What is Nikola?

Nikola is a static site and blog generator, written in Python. It can use Mako and Jinja2 templates, and input in many popular markup formats, such as reStructuredText and Markdown — and can even turn Jupyter Notebooks into blog posts! It also supports image galleries, and is multilingual. Nikola is flexible, and page builds are extremely fast, courtesy of doit (which is rebuilding only what has been changed).

Downloads

Install using pip install Nikola.

Changes

Nikola now supports Python 3.5 or newer. If you are on 3.4, please upgrade to a newer release of Python.
