Jenny
Bash-based static blog generator that builds dated Markdown files into a blog directory.
Jenny is a static blog generator written as a Bash script that uses sed and awk. Posts are files in a blog directory, and a file whose name starts with a date is a published post while any other file is a draft. Running jenny in that directory builds the site, and its templates use heredoc syntax. The project is installed with make install from a git clone, and the README also describes a Docker image.
Worth knowing
GitHub lists no homepage for the project, so the repository is its only public address. The LICENSE file and the README give different copyright lines, and the LICENSE file names the copyright holder.
