A fast static site generator in a single binary with everything built-in.

This tool and its template engine tera were born from an intense dislike of the (insane) Golang template engine and therefore of Hugo that I was using before for 6+ sites.
This is a custom fork of Zola, with some additional features and changes. The main goal of this fork was to fit my own specific needs for my blog, but then I figured they could be useful to others 😄.
I have opened a few pull requests containing some of the changes I made to the upstream repository, but they have not all been merged yet. I will keep this fork up-to-date with the upstream repository, but I will not be actively maintaining it.
