Pie

A minimalist static site generator and router, optimized for Python and SammyJs.

Workflow

Write plaintext content, manipulate it with Python, design templates in Bootstrap and Mustache, compile everything into json and let an embedded router (SammyJs) build on entire site from json.

Finally, push the site to S3 with a single command.

For more info, see sample site (generated by Frozen Pie).
