staticoso

staticoso (from Italian statico [static] + coso [thingy]) is an unpretentious static site generator.

I'm making this because I need a simple and kind-of-minimal program to serve me as a static site generator with (limited) CMS features. Just the features I need.

This won't replace any of the big projects out there that do the same thing but, as all of my projects, I'm releasing it as free libre software, in the hope that someone would find it useful.
Also, this software is needed for someone to edit and compile my personal sub-website sitoctt from its source. Being that site too released under a libre license that allows modifications, I have to also release the tools I use to build it.

Feel free to experiment with all of this stuff!
