A comprehensive listing of static site generators with some minimal meta data about them.
Hack on the website that renders the listing.
There are generally three types of Content Management Systems:
- Dynamic Servers (e.g. WordPress, Ghost, DocPad, Harp) — these allow you to have re-render on every request abilities
- Flat File CMS (e.g. Jekyll, DocPad) — these allow you to write your content as files
- Static Site Generators (e.g. Jekyll, DocPad) — these generate a static website from your input that you can deploy anywhere
Currently, this listing is for only projects that are either or both a Flat File CMS and Static Site Generator, but not for projects which are only Dynamic Servers (such as WordPress and Ghost).
If you would actually like a listing of all Content Management Systems, where you can browse by their types. Let us know in this discussion.
This listing is released into the public domain.
