A simple and minimal static site generator that just works™.
Sometimes, less is more
pip install vite
vite new [path]
vite build
vite serve
That's it, no nonsense.
This is a simple static site generator which is perfect for a personal, blog or documentation site.
It is similar to other static site generators in that it takes your Markdown content, renders it, optimises it and creates a production-ready site that can be served by Nginx, Apache or another web server.
