About This Site

This is a Zest-powered static site. Content written in Markdown is automatically rendered to HTML. ```

How It Works

1. Discovery — Zest scans the content directory for .zest.fsx , .fsx , .md , .markdown , and template files
2. Metadata extraction — Frontmatter is parsed from TOML ( +++ delimiters), F# comments ( // @key value ), or HTML comments ( <!-- @key value --> )
3. Evaluation — .zest.fsx scripts run via dotnet fsi with the Zest.Dsl pre-compiled library loaded. Markdown files are parsed by the built-in engine.
4. Layout wrapping — Each page's content is inserted into its layout template (e.g., _layouts/default.njk ) with placeholder substitution
5. Asset copying — assets/ is copied to _site/assets/ , with .zcss files compiled to .css
6. Output — Final HTML files are written to _site/

Next Steps

• configuration.md — Configure your site with _config.toml
• dsl-guide.md — Learn the page { } computation expression
• dsl-style.md — Write CSS with the F#-native stylesheet { } CE (dot-notation selectors, typed property functions)
• zcss.md — Write CSS with the .zcss preprocessor language (SCSS-like, indent or brace syntax)
• templates.md — Create layout templates
