About
Ace is a static page generator like Nanoc, Jekyll or Webby. How is it different? Well, it’s better :) ! I really like Nanoc and I used it for quite a while, but it’s not flexible enough. If you need to generate a lot of pages on the fly, it’s a hassle. It provides helpers, but helpers are – let’s face it – programming style we used to use years back when we yet believed that PHP is actually a really nice language.
Also, last but not least, Ace has a real template inheritance. Layouts are for kids, real men use template inheritance! What’s the advantage? It’s incredibly flexible.
Check Ace: Static Sites Generator for more information or you can take a look at sources of my blog to have something to play with!
