3. Pelican

   2 30 12,907 8.0 Python

   Static site generator that supports Markdown and reST syntax. Powered by Python.

   

   Most static site generators will work to create a blog. I use pelican [1], which serves my needs.

   You will likely need to edit your blogposts a little bit before putting them in the book. So I recommend a separate program for that altogether.
