- K, Enough of Werc

kew is an extremely minimal static site generator written in go inspired by the legendary werc by Uriel @ cat-v.
it uses lowdown.

why make this when werc exists?
werc is a fantastic program but has its own tradeoffs:

  • it is a dynamic web system, not a static site generator
  • it requires Plan9 utils (rc-shell)
  • it is slow

kew fixes these by adopting a different philosophy:
werc treats the site as a dynamic system,
kew treats the site as a build output.
