Project Launch

The inagural blog post for the Taxus SSG project.

Ready, Set, Go!

The Taxus project launches, welcome! Welcome to the official project site, but with Taxus itself. This blog will be my place to think about things and share the development process.

Why?

Yes, why. The world doesn't really need another static site generator, does it? We have many good ones:

  • Hugo
  • Jekyll
  • Zola

...and many more I can't name off the top of my head.

I don't like any of them. I've tried them trust me.

They are all too technical and just not well documented.

I set about to create something else. It's not particularly ready for anyone but me, but today I launch anyway.
