sukr
Minimal static site compiler — suckless, Rust, zero JS.
sukr transforms Markdown content 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 syntax highlighting — Proper parsing, not regex. Supports language injection (Nix shells, HTML scripts).
- Build-time math — KaTeX renders LaTeX to static HTML. No 300KB JavaScript bundle.
- Build-time diagrams — Mermaid compiles to inline SVG. Diagrams load instantly.
Features
- Syntax highlighting — Tree-sitter with language injection (Nix→Bash, HTML→JS/CSS)
- Math rendering — LaTeX to HTML via KaTeX at build time
- Mermaid diagrams — Rendered to inline SVG, no client JS
- Tera templates — Customize without recompiling
- Hierarchical navigation — Nested sections with table of contents
- Atom feeds — Auto-generated for blog sections
- Sitemap — SEO-ready XML sitemap
- CSS minification — LightningCSS optimization
- Monorepo support — Multiple sites via
-cflag
