                                                                                                Abbaye is a Static Site Generator () for your releases, for those of us who can't or won't use a full-featured software forge.

                                                                                                Big release!

                                                                                                Some refactoring to make the code easier to maintain, some small bugfixes (mainly introduced by the new features :p).

                                                                                                But the star features of this release are:

                                                                                                • Artifact categories and naming: artifacts are now categorized and named consistently, making it easier to understand what each artifact is for, if you choose to do so. It is done via the new [[builder]] category, name and comment keys in the configuration file.
                                                                                                • Add multi-format support. It's still in the early stages but it's functional and supports HTML or Gemtext (for all my folks out there).
                                                                                                • Add support for non-interactive terminals, as in the case of a CI/CD pipeline. You'll still see progress via some log messages and not be stuck on a black screen without any information! (note: this requires the use of abbaye --verbose)
                                                                                                On the more technical side, we now build and packages. Grab them while they're hot. You can also use abbaye self-update to get the latest version.

                                                                                                Here's Abbaye's 0.8.0 page, as built with Abbaye itself: https://vit.am/~ololduck/abbaye/0.8.0/
