Raven is a theme-able and flexible static blog generator fed with Markdown and processed with gulp, pug, and sass built with lightning, simplicity, and awesomeness in mind.
- ⚡ Fast (re)build times and completely static output
- Semantic HTML boilerplate written in Pug
- Theme-able CSS boilerplate written in Sass
- Live reloading and device synchronization
- Automatic syntax highlighting via highlight.js
- Integration boilerplate for Disqus and Google Analytics
- Automatically generated RSS feeds with rss2, atom1, and json1 support
- Streamlined surge.sh deployments
- Drafts and future post publication support
Once you're set with npm, whip out your terminal and enter in the following:
git clone https://github.com/mimoduo/raven.git
cd raven
sudo npm install gulp-cli -g
npm install
gulp
That's it! Raven will spin up a live reload server and begin to watch for any changes. At this point, you're either ready to dive right in (especially for those familiar with Pelican blogs) or take a peak into the raven doc.
Contributions are welcome! Ask ahead of time if there's any new feature or modification you'd like to add/make. You wouldn't wanna spend a whole bunch of time on something that may be rejected.
The best kind of contribution is a successful blog. Add yours below for extra recognition in the github spotlight ;)
