**Pure functional static site generator in Haskell.**

== Who Is This For?

* **Haskell developers** who want to build sites with tools they know and love

* **Functional programming enthusiasts** who appreciate compositional design

* **Teams requiring reliability** where type safety prevents runtime surprises

* **Anyone frustrated** by dynamic language site builders that fail at deploy time

== Why casket-ssg?

=== Type Safety That Matters

Your site structure is checked at compile time. Missing templates, broken links, malformed frontmatter - all caught before deployment, not discovered by users.

=== Composable Pipelines

Content transformations compose like functions should. Chain markdown processing, templating, and asset handling with confidence that types align.

=== Lazy Large-Site Builds

Haskell's lazy evaluation means casket-ssg only processes what's needed. Incremental builds are natural, not bolted on.

=== Pandoc Integration

Best-in-class document conversion with full Pandoc support. Markdown, reStructuredText, Org-mode - your content, your format.

== Quick Start

[source,bash]

----

# Install

cabal update

cabal install casket-ssg

# Create a site

casket-ssg init my-site

cd my-site

# Build

casket-ssg build

# Preview locally

casket-ssg serve

----

== Features

* **Compile-time template validation** - broken templates don't build

* **Strong frontmatter types** - YAML parsing with schema enforcement

* **Asset pipeline** - CSS/JS processing with hash-based cache busting

* **Incremental builds** - only rebuild what changed

* **Live reload** - instant preview during development

* **RSS/Atom feeds** - generated automatically from content

* **Sitemap generation** - SEO-ready output

== Requirements

* GHC 9.0 or later

* Cabal 3.0 or Stack 2.0

== Part of poly-ssg

casket-ssg is part of the https://github.com/hyperpolymath/poly-ssg[poly-ssg] family of language-native static site generators, unified through https://github.com/hyperpolymath/poly-ssg-mcp[MCP integration].
