HubPress: a web application to build static blog on GitHub Pages.

As Jekyll, Octopress or Awestruct, the goal of HubPress is to build static content on Github Pages.

These tools are really great, but we wanted to provide a tool more user-friendly and accessible for the majority of people. Another point is that we love the Asciidoc markup and we looked for a way to contribute to its development.

That’s why we made HubPress.

With the usual tools, to build a blog on Github Pages require a minimum of technical knowledge (you need to know git, to install ruby, to learn a build process …​).

To provide a better user experience, we made a web interface based on Asciidoctor with the javascript version.

With HubPress, all you need is an internet connection and a GitHub account, that’s all!

To save or publish a post, just one click is necessary. As we focus on accessibility, you just have to focus on writing.

HubPress is :

  • easy to use, without technical skills required,

  • free, no subscription, no server’s rent,

  • yours, once HubPress is installed in your repository GitHub, you can live alone if you want.

Please find here attached an "how to" video which shows you the simplicity to publish your own blog post with hubpress.

Reminder: Hubpress is still in preview. So your feedbacks are more than welcome. If you want to give it a try, you’re welcome https://github.com/HubPress/hubpress.io
