3dash Static Site Generator
===========================

[](#3dash-static-site-generator)

3dash is a tiny PHP static site generator created as a weekend project. We wanted a simple PHP solution, similar to Metalsmith, to create a tiny personal blog.

Here's the gist: there is a [payload object](./docs/payload.md) that manages your site [content](./docs/files.md#content-files) and [asset](./docs/files.md#asset-files)files. The payload object's properties are associative arrays. The array keys are pathnames of generated site files (e.g. "/about/josh.html"), and the array values are [File](./docs/files.md#the-file-class) instances that determine the content of generated site files.

The payload object is processed by a sequence of [plugins](./docs/plugins.md). Plugins are run in the order they are added. Each plugin may manipulate the payload object. For example, a plugin may add, update, or remove site files. A plugin may also provide tools intended for subsequent plugins. The final plugin generates and outputs site files.
