Hyde is Crystal’s answer to gems like Jekyll and Middleman; a static site generator built around pluggability, ease of use, and speed.
With Hyde everything is based around plugins including the HTML generation, allowing you to pick and choose what pieces you want for your site.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Comes in two parts; the core and the CLI.
- The CLI provides these commands:
- hyde new – generates a new Hyde static site using the default template.
- hyde build – build your static site.
- hyde deploy – use your deployment config to deploy your Hyde site.
- hyde serve – use the built in development server to run your Hyde site locally.
