Fossfolio

Python static site generator for developer portfolio sites, built from Markdown content with plugin placeholders.

Fossfolio is a static site generator written in Python for developers who want their own static websites, mostly portfolios. It is based on Python-markdown. Plugins are Python modules that replace placeholders such as <% current_time %> in the Markdown files. The project site describes running python build.py to write the generated site to a build folder.

Worth knowing

The README says Jinja2 templating is under development, so the plugin placeholders are the only templating it describes. The repository has no release and no tag.
