## Notes

Serum is written in Elixir and builds a website from Markdown documents and EEx templates. It is aimed at blogs and also builds general sites. Pages and posts are files in a project folder, and the build writes the finished site into an output folder, so the live site is a set of static files.

The development server is for checking a site on the developer's machine before publishing.

## Worth knowing

The GitHub repository is archived. Neither the README nor the project site states an end, so the archive flag is the only sign that development has stopped.
