StaticSiteGenerator - Python Wiki

Static site generator is a software that takes some text + templates as input and produces html files on the output. A picture:

   ┌──────┐   ┌───────────┐   ┌─────────────┐ **
   │ text │ + │ templates │ = │ .html files │
   └──────┘   └───────────┘   └─────────────┘

Generated site can be blog, game list, interactive demo or anything else.
