STUB. This software has no release or pre-release in four years, or its project site no longer shows it, so it is not part of the register, not counted and not indexed. It will be checked again.

## Notes

Hindsite is a static website generator written in Go. It builds HTML pages from Markdown and Rimu documents kept in a content directory, and writes the site into a build directory. It is installed with `go install`, which needs Go 1.18 or later, or from a pre-compiled binary. The output is a directory of static files. Stuart Rackham holds the copyright under the MIT license.
