Eddi is a static site generator.
It is written on top of Node.js and builds upon the framework pillr.
- CommonMark (Markdown) syntax to generate HTML content.
- JSON front matter to define metadata for each page.
- Mustache to define layout templates.
- support for styling using Less.
- support for Markdown extensions: abbreviations, containers, definition lists, footnotes, subscript, and superscript.
- support for the LaTeX markup.
- no database, everything is contained in the metadata and the final file hiearchy mirrors the one used as the source.
- propagation of metadata to descendant files if specified at the directory level.
- command-line interface.
- async.
The default theme can be previewed in this demo.
It has been designed to:
- focus on the content with a minimalist, distraction-free, design.
- display equally well on any device.
- adhere to the HTML5 standard and enforce strong HTML semantics (good for screen readers and SEO!).
- provide fast page loading times.
- implement both the Open Graph Protocol and the Twitter Card metadatas for improved sharing experience of articles over social networks.
