Over the weekend I completed the review of all the scripting tools documented
for generating static sites. Per the group's request I narrowed the field down
to the ones listed below. Narrowing was first based on currency of project
files, then other things like documentation. Since I'm new to these tools I'm
sure the narrowing was much less knowledge based, but rather by impression.
I will begin installing and trying the tools now. At the top of this, only
by coincidence, was Jekyll it had the most responses. Webgen seems to have been
a stable in this area for awhile and was quoted by many of the other tools.
Apache ASF is a CMS, but was mentioned in the discussion and may be viable
for the website generation I do not know. I will investigate further. I came
across Twitter Bootstrap and it impressed me because it seemed simple and had
example templates for various sites.
