About GAX

What is GAX?

GAX is not another bloated SSG. It's a summoning jutsu.

No Node. No NPM. No 500MB node_modules black hole. Just one Go binary that burns your Markdown into immortal static files in dist/.

Built for people who hate slow builds.

Philosophy - The Six Seals

This project is inspired by Itachi Uchiha. Six seals, six principles.

I. KUCHIYOSE NO JUTSU (Summoning)

Itachi doesn't install. He summons.

git clone github.com/mesinkasir/gax && go build -o gax ./cmd/gax

If it caws --help, summoning success.

II. SHARINGAN (The Eye)

config.yaml is his Sharingan. One eye sees everything.

{{config.title}}, {{config.url}} - infinite nested, no hardcode.

III. KARASU BUNSHIN NO JUTSU (Crow Clones)

Frontmatter + Markdown = crow clone.

Every content/*.md is a crow. One original, 1000 crows fly to dist/.

IV. CROW LEGION (Collections)

content/blog.md with collection: blog + pagination: 10.

Itachi never fights alone. collections.blog is his legion.

V. KOTOAMATSUKAMI (Data & Templates)

The strongest genjutsu. data/*.yaml auto-loaded.

Templates control dist/ without touching content.

VI. AMATERASU (Release & Burn)

Black flame that never goes out.

gax build to dist/ - burns node_modules forever. Deploy anywhere. Static = immortal.

Why GAX?

  • Fast as hell - Go binary, 1000 pages < 100ms.
  • No bullshit - No JS runtime.
  • Nested List Support - amaterasu.files, seals[].body[] all supported.
  • Hackable - parser/ and render/ are 200 lines, you can rewrite it drunk.

Stack

  • Language: Go
  • Template: .gax (Liquid-like)
  • Content: Markdown + YAML Frontmatter
  • Output: Static HTML in dist/
