Just a heads up that Stasis 1.0.0 has been released. The API has been stable for two months now. I've built three sites with it, and I know of two other sites built with Stasis too:
- The docs for SinonJS: http://sinonjs.org/ - J David Smith's blog at http://atlanis.net/blog/ He even wrote a blog post about it here: http://atlanis.net/blog/posts/new-site-stasis.html So if you were on the fence because of the 0.x release, worry no more. :) Building a static site is an excellent way to have fun with Clojure, and get a lightning fast web site that can handle any amount of traffic. - Magnar On Thursday, January 23, 2014 11:16:48 AM UTC+1, Magnar Sveen wrote: > > Stasis > > A Clojure library of tools for developing static web sites. > > <https://gist.github.com/magnars/32dbca91bdb0987ea4ba#another-static-site-framework-why>Another > > static site framework?
