Wintersmith is a flexible static site generator for Node.js that transforms content like markdown and templates like pug into a static website via a plugin system. It ships as a CLI with scaffolding, a live preview server, and a build command.
Use cases
- generate a static blog from markdown files
- build a documentation site with pug templates
- preview a static site locally while editing
- extend a static site generator with custom plugins
- host a simple website without a backend
When to choose
- you want a plugin-driven Node.js static site generator with markdown and pug support
- you prefer a simple content-tree model and full control over rendering
- you want a built-in preview server and site scaffolding
When to avoid
- you need an actively developed tool with recent releases
- you prefer a JavaScript-based generator over CoffeeScript-era code
- you need built-in features like i18n or image pipelines without writing plugins
