# sukr

**sukr** transforms Markdown into high-performance static HTML. No bloated runtimes, no client-side JavaScript, just clean output.

## Why sukr?

Most static site generators punt rich content to the browser. sukr doesn't.

- **Tree-sitter highlighting** — Proper parsing, not regex. Supports language injection (Nix→Bash, HTML→JS/CSS).
- **Build-time math** — KaTeX renders LaTeX to static HTML. No 300KB JavaScript bundle.
- **Build-time diagrams** — Mermaid compiles to inline SVG. Diagrams load instantly.
- **Flexible templates** — Runtime Tera templates, no recompilation needed.
- **Monorepo-ready** — Multiple sites via `-c` config flag.
