Welcome to Bijou

Bijou is an experimental template based static website generator written in .NET

Great for prototyping!

Need to get a prototype going quick and fast. You probably want to consider bijou!

Absolutely no scripting

Well, that's a double edge sword. It make things simple, however with simplicity comes limitations. Maybe the limitations are not for you, so read on...

Installation

You really only need bijou.exe (and mono if you are running this on Linux). You might want to start off with the sample content/ and templates/ folders provided with this code.

How to use it

Well, it's pretty simple. Simply run bijou.exe at the root of a folder that contains:

  • content/ (a folder hiearchy with various content files)
  • templates/ (a folder with processing templates)
  • site/ (a destination folder where the processed files are written)

Inspiration

I have to thank Ben Schwarz at http://tinytree.info/ for Bonsai ( a PHP based version, with way more features I might add) as this is where I took a few of the ideas for this experimental project. Mucho thanks Ben!

Well this is really experimental code. Use at your own risk. Released under the MIT LICENSE.
