bootstrapping

2023-05-28

There are so many tools and systems to build static sites, each with its own set of dependencies, rules and requirements.

Why I started m4ke

My main goal was to create a tool for building static blogs that was easy for me to use. I wanted to cut down on the number of steps and the need for extra tooling, making😂 it straightforward for me to get my blog up and running without any hassle.

How m4ke works

At its core, m4ke uses a simple concept: it takes text files, processes them (using m4 and make), and turns them into a website. No need to install a bunch of dependencies or learn new syntax. Just a text editor, some html and css.
