Submission text
leafpress is a modern, minimalistic, opinionated static-site generator for digital gardeners like me. It allows wrapping over any existing folder of MD files and quickly generate website from it. Common markdown and Obsidian-specific syntax/features are supported.
It offers decent amount of UI configurability with a JSON-based config file that allows tweaking colours, fonts, navigation, etc. It’s also much faster than most of the SSGs out there.
I built this because I was more or less irritated with all the tools out there for this- all of them needed either too much configuration and extra work to support full needs of a digital garden.
