DESCRIPTION:

Zenweb is a set of classes/tools for organizing and formating a website. It is website oriented rather than webpage oriented, unlike most rendering tools. It is content oriented, rather than style oriented, unlike most rendering tools. It uses a rubygems plugin system to provide a very flexible, and powerful system.

Zenweb 3 was inspired by jekyll. The filesystem layout is similar to jekyll’s layout, but zenweb isn’t focused on blogs. It can do any sort of website just fine.

Zenweb uses rake to handle dependencies. As a result, scanning a website and regenerating incrementally is not just possible, it is blazingly fast.

FEATURES:

  • Uses rake to do intelligent incremental builds.

  • Uses rubygems to provide a flexible plugin system.

  • Provides plugins for less, markdown, and erb out of the box.

  • Uses a hierarchical config/variable system making pages cleaner.

  • Has syntax highlighting via coderay.

  • Blazingly fast.

  • Stupidly flexible.

  • TODO: provide more templates via gem extensions.

  • TODO: provide more migrators via gem extensions.

REQUIREMENTS:

  • rubygems

  • rake

  • kramdown

  • coderay

  • rb-fsevent

INSTALL:
