Zola

Zola is a fast static site generator (SSG) contained in a single binary with everything built-in, it has no other dependencies. It is by far my preferred way to build static websites.

SSGs use dynamic templates to transform content into static HTML pages. Static sites are thus very fast and require no databases, making them easy to host. Content is written in Markdown.
