Nikola is a static website and blog generator. Its original goal is to create blogs, but it supports most kind of sites and can be used as a CMS, as long as what you present to the user is your own content instead of something the user generates.

There are many static site generators but besides of Pelican there is only Nikola who offers this combination: Made with Python, multiple input formats (e.g. even Jupyter Notebooks), dedicated core developers, user-friendly CLI and inbuilt multi-lingual support.

What is Nikola?

Nikola is a static website and blog generator. Its original goal is to create blogs, but it supports most kind of sites and can be used as a CMS, as long as what you present to the user is your own content instead of something the user generates. Since Nikola-based sites don’t run any code on the server, there is no way to process user input in forms.
