Rebuild my site with Webgen


 

How to rebuild my site with Webgen by Knit Geek

"It was a minor technical accomplishment"

How I did it: Most of the work was in transforming the whole-site-in-one file format I was using for WebMake to the one-file-per-page format for Webgen. I definitely like the accompanying designs, and the tags are easy to work with. I *know* I'll be fiddling with it more, and I may even migrate away from Webgen later.

Lessons & tips: Study the documentation and don't be afraid to experiment.

All the content is being generated now, and I’m using one of the provided templates. I’ll probably muck about with it later, but that’s not a priority for the moment.

Now I just need to figure out how to do the bloggy news pieces.

This should be an easy task 7 months ago

I’m doing it right now, as a matter of fact.

Webgen is one of many static site generation tools. It’s written in Ruby, and looks like it’s going to work just fine for my site. At least as well as WebMake, which is what I’ve been using up to now.
