Description-en: Simple, blog aware, static site generator
Jekyll is a simple, blog aware, static site generator. It takes a
template directory (representing the raw form of a website), runs it
through Textile or Markdown and Liquid converters, and spits out a
complete, static website suitable for serving with Apache or your
favorite web server.
.
This is also the engine behind GitHub Pages(http://pages.github.com),
which you can use to host your project's page or blog right here from
GitHub.
