README
######

Pynfact is a simple static website generator oriented to chronological
content, like blogs or websites with historic and sequential data.  It
allows integration with external scripts, comment engines such as
Disqus, TalkYard, etc., or Google Analytics...  Theming and
configuration is possible by editing Jinja2 templates.

:Purpose:        A blog-oriented static website generator
:Latest version: **1.3.6** (2025-10-02)

Usage
=====

The interaction is done by command line.  Only a few commands are
needed:

#. ``pynfact --init=<myblog>``: Create a folder with all needed content
#. Go to that directory: ``cd <myblog>``
#. Configure settings in ``config.yml``, title, name, language...
#. ``pynfact --build``: Generates the static content
#. ``pynfact --serve=localhost``: Serves locally to test the results
   (by default at ``localhost:4000``)

Why this name?
==============

Granted it will be used on the "web", the word "log" in Latin may be
translated as *INdicem FACTorum*, hence *InFact* or **-nFact** to be
more easily pronounceable when prepending the prefix *py-*, an indicator
of the programming language where it has been developed.

Also, *pyblog*, *pyblic*, *pyweblog* and many other cool names were
already taken.
