Bestatic

Static site generator written in Python and Jinja2 that builds websites and blogs from Markdown files.

Bestatic is a static site generator written in Python and Jinja2 that builds websites and blogs from Markdown files. The site is configured with a bestatic.yaml file and themed with Jinja2 templates. The quickstart creates a site, builds it into _output, and runs a bundled server for local preview.

It is installed with graphical installers, or with Snap, Flatpak, Homebrew or pipx. The _output folder can be uploaded to any server, and the deployment guide describes building in CI on GitHub Pages, GitLab Pages, Netlify or Cloudflare Pages.
