Sibyl

Sibyl is a static site builder written in Python. It allows you to easily create, develop, and build static websites with a Single Page Application (SPA) feel. With its simple-to-use commands, hot reloading capabilities, and partial page loading, Sibyl makes your web development process seamless and efficient.

That was the marketing part. Now for the real part, Sibyl is something I wrote in a Sunday and wrote some words I call documentation in a morning. This was never meant to be public or used in anything real, yet here we are.

Most documentation is actually in my mind. Considering all of that, if you still want to use Sibyl, feel free to. If you want to contribute, even better, just create a PR.

Usage

Initializing a new project

To create a new project, navigate to the desired directory and run the following command:

sibyl init

or

python -m sibyl.init

This will generate a new project structure with the necessary files.

Starting a development server

To start a development server with hot reloading, navigate to your project directory and run:

sibyl dev

Once the server is up and running, you can view your website at http://localhost:8080 .

sibyl build

This command will generate a dist folder containing the production-ready static files.
