Glim - A new faster jekyll website compiler clone / alternative (in ruby)

Hello, Jekyll not fast enough? Why not build a compatible faster clone / alternative from scratch / zero (in ruby)? Sounds crazy? Allan Odgaard (of TextMate fame) has just done it and with about 3 000 lines of ruby code offers even more features than jekyll itself :-) e.g. built-in tags and categories for collections, lazy evaluation and parallized builds, better defaults, and much more. Find out more at the Glim website compiler source project repo. Cheers. Prost. PS: By the way - did you know? Slide Show (S9) is another jekyll-compatible clone :-) that lets you build presentations / talk slides in markdown (kramdown, really) and jekyll themes e.g. reveal.js, shower.js, bespoke.js, s6, etc.

You can use basic HTML markup (e.g. <a>) or Markdown.
