django-distill

Static site generator and publisher for Django that renders URLs to HTML files.

django-distill is a static site generator and publisher for Django. It renders the URLs of an existing Django site into HTML files and writes them to a local directory, or uploads them to Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage or Azure Blob Storage. The process can run in CI/CD to deploy a site on each commit. It is installed with pip.

The project has no website of its own, so the README in the repository is its documentation.

Worth knowing

Internationalization covers URLs only; the tool does not translate page content. The README describes the current release line as a ground-up rebuild that is not guaranteed to be compatible with older releases.
