Welcome to Rotkeeper

A Bash-native static-site and content system using the Oliver renderer.

Rotkeeper turns Markdown, Textile, and Cooklang sources into a static site. It keeps system files in bones/, authored content and assets in home/, and generated HTML in output/. Other layout styles change the source, template, asset, and output paths while keeping bones/ as the system root.

Help explains how to install Rotkeeper, create a first page, choose a theme, build and check a site, and publish it. It also covers documentation maintenance and common errors.
