Current Status


The latest commits are available from the MakeStaticSite repository on GitHub, https://github.com/paultraf/makestaticsite. It was added to the Jamstack.org’s list of static site generators (under language: Bash) in June 2023.

It is prototype software — so far, it has been developed by one person, with a limited amount of testing, mainly on macOS and Debian/Ubuntu Linux. Hence it is at version 0.x. Even so, it offers quite a lot of functionality that covers general web publishing needs, including provisional support for websites that require login. It has been successfully used in recent months to convert several WordPress sites, including this one.

The current version (0.31) consolidates work in previous versions, particularly the native support for the Wayback Machine, to continue improving the quality and completeness of the output.

Details of releases and long-term intentions for further work are given on separate pages.
