Contents behind the https://jconfdominicana.org web site.

This site is baked with JBake, a static site generator. The idea behind JBake is very simple: contents is written using a markup language and "baked" with template engines into actual HTML. Everything is generated statically and you can upload the generated site wherever you want.
