caddy-markdown-site

This project allows you to serve Markdown files as adequately good-looking minimal web pages with the Caddy web server. It is not a static site generator; there is no build step. It consists of a configuration file (Caddyfile) and some templates. You will need some knowledge of Caddy to use and customize it.

Features

• If your file is demo/foo.md and your domain example.com, you will be able to access the file as both example.com/foo.md and example.com/foo with no extension.
• index.md serves as a directory index (but index.html has priority).
• You can customize the look of your site without touching the main template. Edit templates/{head,header,footer}.html to do it. head.html links the style sheet.
• An error page is shown on error.
