View Source Griffin is an Elixir static site generator

Griffin takes advantage of all of your CPU-cores to generate static websites quickly. It aims to be the Elixir alternative to popular generators like 11ty or hugo.

  • Griffin was made to feel familiar to Elixir developers. It uses the same mix based installer as Phoenix, which will make Elixir web developers feel right at home.

  • Griffin is not competing with Phoenix. Griffin was created to make it easier to build static websites, where none of Phoenix's flagship features are relevant.

  • Griffin uses independent template languages. Despite being an Elixir tool, content is written in Markdown with YAML front matter to allow easier migrations to or from Griffin.

  • Griffin is simple to use. We lower the barrier to entry by using sensible defaults and minimizing the amount of configuration needed to set up a Griffin website.

  • Griffin is built by the community. This is a new project that is still in active development. Feel free to engage with us by starring the project on Github, contributing a pull-request or helping answer questions, making sure to follow our code of conduct.
