Indiekit

Indiekit (GitHub repo) is “the little Node.js server with all the pieces needed to own your content and share it with the wider independent web”. This project is currently being developed by Paul Robert Lloyd.

The immediate goal of this project was to provide a self-hosted Micropub endpoint that could save posts to a content store (such as GitHub) for subsequent publishing with a static site generator (such as Jekyll).

With that goal met, the longer term ambition is to support other publishing APIs (Webmention, Microsub, ActivityPub etc.), integrate with a wider range of content management systems, and provide a compelling web management interface.
