## Notes

LitePub is a static blog generator written in Go. Posts are Markdown files in a posts directory, with the title, date and tags read from the text of each post instead of from front matter. The `build` command applies Go html/template templates to them and writes static HTML files, and a built-in server previews the result. The README says it needs one binary and no configuration files or databases, and it is installed with `go install` or from a release download.
