sqzass

Most generators lean on their host for pretty URLs, redirects and cache headers. sqzass does that work itself, so the same output is correct on GitHub Pages, Vercel, Cloudflare Pages, or a plain directory served over HTTP.

What that buys you#

Markdown is transformed on the tree. Link rewriting, heading anchors and the table of contents are AST operations via comrak. The common shortcut — running regexes over the finished HTML — silently skips any element whose attributes are single-quoted or unquoted, and you find out in production.

Templates cannot read a half-written file. templates/ is snapshotted once per build and minijinja's loader resolves include and extends from that snapshot, so a rebuild triggered while you are saving sees one consistent state.

Broken references stop the build. An unresolved @/ link, a template that does not exist, two pages claiming the same URL, an unknown asset name — each is an error, not a warning you scroll past.

The same input produces the same bytes. Two builds are byte-identical, and CI checks it on every push.

Bilingual from the start. A page's translations are linked automatically, and a language's navigation contains only pages that exist in it, so an untranslated page cannot leave a dead link behind.

Status#

Early, and honest about it: syntax highlighting, navigation, the table of contents, the asset pipeline and the dev server work. Search, feeds and themes do not exist yet. Start at Getting started.
