About Pelican

Pelican was created in 2010 by Alexis Metaireau to provide a simple and efficient way to generate static websites from content written in reStructuredText or Markdown. It aimed to offer an alternative to dynamic content management systems by focusing on speed, security, and ease of maintenance.

Pelican's strengths include its simplicity, speed, and support for Markdown and reStructuredText. It generates static sites, enhancing security and performance. However, it lacks dynamic features and may require technical knowledge for customization. Competitors include Jekyll, Hugo, and Gatsby, which offer similar static site generation capabilities with varying levels of complexity and feature sets.
