sukr
Minimal static site compiler — suckless, Rust, zero JS
Welcome to sukr¶
sukr transforms Markdown into high-performance static HTML. No bloated runtimes, no client-side JavaScript, just clean output.
Why sukr?¶
Most static site generators punt rich content to the browser. sukr doesn't.
- Tree-sitter highlighting — Proper parsing, not regex. Supports language injection (Nix→Bash, HTML→JS/CSS).
- Build-time math — KaTeX renders LaTeX to static HTML. No 300KB JavaScript bundle.
- Build-time diagrams — Mermaid compiles to inline SVG. Diagrams load instantly.
- Flexible templates — Runtime Tera templates, no recompilation needed.
- Monorepo-ready — Multiple sites via
-cconfig flag.
