Simple but complete. It comes with all\navailable themes in the package and it even comes with a tool to generate a\npage to sample all of them!\n\nWhat I like: it's not something new but I find the commands to create and edit\ncontent very useful. I'm used to open a vim session and work from there but the\nability to enter `./bsgg.sh edit \u003cfilename\u003e` or `./bssg.sh post` and it simply\nasks for the title and opens the default editor. Simple. And when you save and\nclose your file, it rebuilds itself to update your content. \n\nWhat I want (not need): the admin interface. Not for me, since I was born in\nthe command line, but for the common folk that I want to convert to the simple world of static sites.\n\nSo far, it's one of the best tools that I came across :)\n\nOBS. One issue that I found is that when using `pandoc` to render the pages, the standard list format is not rendered in the HTML. It works with `commonmark`.\n","tags":["ssg","bssg","selfhosting"],"paid":false,"views":19,"likes":2}}
