Marpit /mɑːrpɪt/ is the skinny framework for creating slide deck from Markdown. It can transform Markdown and CSS theme(s) to slide deck composed of static HTML and CSS and create a web page convertible into slide PDF by printing. Marpit is designed to output minimum assets for the slide deck. You can use the bare assets as a logicless slide deck, but mainly we expect to integrate output with other tools and applications.

An extremely simple, pluggable static site generator for NodeJS.

Use Metalsmith to generate anything from a static site to a scaffolder, backup, command line, or deploy tool. Configuration over code or code over configuration: Metalsmith supports both.

Smaug is a developer tool for archiving Twitter (X) bookmarks — and optionally likes — into markdown files in an automated way, offering a simple means of preserving social media content in human-readable, version-controlled text. Named after the treasure-hoarding dragon, it uses the Twitter API (or community tools like the bird CLI) to fetch bookmarked posts and outputs them in markdown, making it easy to back up content for future reference or documentation. Smaug is designed for automation and integration into personal workflows, allowing users to run setup and export jobs from the command line with minimal configuration. It supports configuration through JSON and can be extended or scripted as part of broader personal knowledge management systems. Because the output is plain markdown, it fits well with static site generators and digital gardens — preserving links, text, and metadata in a format that’s both platform-independent and version-friendly.
