Glaze is a fast, modern static site generator for PHP developers who want content-first authoring without a heavy framework in the way.

> 📚 **Documentation:**

[![Glaze command](docs/static/terminal_dark.png)](https://josbeir.github.io/sugar)

### Quick workflow

[](#quick-workflow)

- write content in Djot
- shape output with Sugar templates
- generate static files for reliable, simple deployment

Glaze stays lightweight while still giving you practical features like frontmatter, taxonomy-aware discovery, template context helpers, and an ergonomic CLI (`glaze init`, `glaze build`, `glaze serve`).

Glaze is built around:

- [Djot](https://djot.net/) content (via [php-collective/djot-php](https://github.com/php-collective/djot-php))
- [Sugar](https://josbeir.github.io/sugar/) templates
- [NEON](https://github.com/nette/neon/) configuration for both page frontmatter and project/site config

If you like clean files, modern templating, and quick iteration, Glaze is made for you.
