Nutrient – The #1 PDF SDK Library, trusted by 10K+ developers
Other PDF SDKs promise a lot - then break. Laggy scrolling, poor mobile UX, tons of bugs, and lack of support cost you endless frustrations. Nutrient’s SDK handles billion-page workloads - so you don’t have to debug PDFs. Used by ~1 billion end users in more than 150 different countries.

  1. Hugo

    The world’s fastest framework for building websites.

    I use a static site generator called HUGO, I built my blog with it. So I recommend it.

  3. pages-gem

    A simple Ruby Gem to bootstrap dependencies for setting up and maintaining a local Jekyll environment in sync with GitHub Pages

    Check out Github Pages and Jekyll.

  4. Nikola

    A static website and blog generator

    I tend to prefer static site generators for this kind of use case. I use Nikola, which is written in and based on Python. You should be able to pick whatever html5up template you like and turn it into a Nikola template, too.

  5. sphinx

    The Sphinx documentation generator

    An actual Python static site tool that is very valuable to get proficient with is SphinxSphinx - it's primarily used for auto-code documentation (like ReadTheDocs) but I'm sure it's flexible for other things.

  6. camply

    camply, the campsite finder ⛺️ - a tool to find campsites at sold out campgrounds through sites like recreation.gov

    Here's a personal page built with Jekyll: https://juftin.com. And here's a Sphinx Page: https://juftin.com/camply. Both are actually hosted on GitHub pages for free.

  7. personal-website

    My personal website (by jcoelho93)

    Just use my template https://github.com/jcoelho93/personal-website

  8. bedrock-schema-docs

    Auto generated documentation from the Schemas by Blockception

    The github project is here.. The entire tag builder is just ~100 lines.
