A few things you should know
-
Progem is a serious adaptation of Attila Theme by Peter Amende
-
Progem is designed to quickly get a static site up and running and allow individuals to showcase their work using Pelican static site generator.
-
The entire platform can be modified and customised to suit your needs. It's very powerful, but does require some knowledge of code.
History of Pelican
A report the original author (Alexis Métaireau) wrote right after writing Pelican, in December 2010. Read more about it here
Why I created Progem
As I was planning Spydermaxi.com, I came across Pelican static site generator and absolutely ❤️ it! Upon reading the documentation, I decided that creating a theme for the site would be an excellent opportunity to learn more about Pelican.
I'm not a web designer, and having attended Web development Bootcamp, and Django Bootcamp on Udemy has helped me grasp the basics of web development and web design. While researching where to start, I came across Attila Theme, and decided to adopt the theme to speed up the development process.
