Scribing
Static blog generator written in PHP that builds posts and pages from Markdown files with Plates templates.
Scribing turns Markdown posts and pages into a static blog. It builds a file for each post and each page, plus an archive page that lists posts by year, using Plates templates. A separate subcommand writes an Atom feed from the posts. The README describes hosting the generated files on GitHub Pages from a separate repository, and the tool is installed with Composer.
