Project description
Nikola generates static websites.
Static websites are safer, use fewer resources, and avoid vendor and platform lockin. You can read more about this in the Nikola Handbook.
It has many features, but here are some of the nicer ones:
Blogs, with tags, feeds, archives, comments, etc.
Themable
Fast builds, thanks to doit
Flexible, extensible via plugins
Small codebase (programmers can understand all of Nikola in a day)
reStructuredText [Cheatsheet] or Markdown as input language
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.
