Middleman
Build static websites with an easy-to-use framework
Middleman is an open-source static site generator built on Ruby that leverages modern web development shortcuts and tools. Developers install it as a Ruby gem, scaffold a project from the command line, and export production-ready static files with a single build command. It is designed to be customizable and extensible for frontend development workflows.
Users install the Middleman gem, scaffold a project via CLI, customize using built-in conventions, then run a build command to export a production-ready static site for deployment.
