Store the data in your favorite format
Store your data using static formats like JSON or YAML. Use JavaScript or TypeScript to get the data from a Database or API.
title: Galician municipalities
items:
- O Pino
- Tordoia
- Ordes
- Cedeira
{
"title": "Galician municipalities",
"items": [
"O Pino",
"Tordoia",
"Ordes",
"Cedeira"
]
}
export const title = "Galician municipalities";
export const items = [
"O Pino",
"Tordoia",
"Ordes",
"Cedeira"
];
const title = "Galician municipalities";
const response = await fetch("https://example.com/galician-minicipalities.json");
const items = (await response.json()) as string[];
export { title, items };
Process HTML pages and assets
Processors can compile and optimize assets like CSS or JavaScript. They can also transform the HTML code using the DOM API.
site.process([".css"], (file) => {
file.content = customTransform(file.content);
})
site.process([".html"], (page) => {
page.document.querySelectorAll("h1", (title) => {
title.innerText = title.innerText.toUpperCase();
})
})
Run your scripts and listen for events
You can create custom scripts like in NPM and execute them from the CLI or after any event.
site.script("deploy", "rsync -r _site/ user@host.com:/site");
site.addEventListener("afterBuild", "deploy");
site.addEventListener("afterBuild", () => console.log("site build"));
lume run deploy
And everything with a clean and intuitive API
Configure your site build in a single _config.ts or _config.js file with plugins and a simple and clean API.
import lume from "lume/mod.ts";
const site = lume();
export default site;
import lume from "lume/mod.ts";
import parcelCSS from "lume/plugins/parcel_css.ts";
import esbuild from "lume/plugins/esbuild.ts";
import svgo from "lume/plugins/svgo.ts";
import jsx from "lume/plugins/jsx.ts";
import date from "lume/plugins/date.ts";
const site = lume();
site.use(parcelCSS())
.use(esbuild())
.use(svgo())
.use(jsx())
.use(date());
export default site;

He descubierto #lume para crear sitios estáticos con #deno. Es una pasada la flexibilidad que te ofrece, la cantidad de cosas que puedes conseguir y lo divertido que es https://t.co/JtA3g86u14

Garage de ideas Quick PSA: Lume, an SSG by @misteroom, really helped me rebuild my site in an easy and safe way. Using three.js and Lume side-by-side was easy, flexible, and really fun. Thank you so much for Lume.❤️

denolab Time to ditch @jekyllrb as my preferred #StaticSiteGenerator.
Standout features of Lume, besides running on @deno_land's TypeScript & JavaScript runtime:
▶︎ Pages can be written in YAML containing an outline of the page contents
▶︎ Nested layouts
Doğa Armangil (@DogaArmangil) Lume is Great and I'm finally at peace.
I'm upgrading my review of Lume from "crazy good" to "holy wow, this is the most fun I've had building websites in literally years". It takes the best ideas from Eleventy and then cranks the productivity up to 11. Don't sleep on this one if you're a jaded web dinosaur like me! https://t.co/XHKLWshU3U
Hendrik Mans (@hmans) I’ve spent just 30 minutes playing with Lume Static Site Generator by @deno_land and I already love it! It’s blazingly fast and seems to have all features I need out of the box.#deno #typescript #webdev
Kacper Kula (@kulak_at) Maior acerto dos últimos meses: migrar meu blog do GitHub pages para Lume. Me deu menos dor de cabeça do que Astro. E eu posso finalmente usar @deno_land na prática.

Coding with Robby Que hermoso ver cómo está creciendo el ecosistema de @deno_land con cositas tan copadas como Fresh o Lume🦕
Lauchita. (@_LautaroLopez) Lume触ってみた。コンパクトで使いやすかった https://t.co/IBdWKpe9BA #zenn
hashrock (@hashedrock) OK, falling in love with @deno_land and the Lume SSG. So nice not having to worry about node_modules 😄
freeLance (@freeLance0451) I recently redesigned my site (https://t.co/n9FcC2ATtp) with Lume: a lovely static site generator built by @misteroom. Easy, simple and fast to work with. Definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of 11ty on Node.js.
Naiyer Asif نیر آصف (@Microflash) ¿No habíamos contado que el código de la web de la #tarugo22 es COMPLETAMENTE OPEN SOURCE?
¿Y tampoco que está creada con tecnología gallega? https://t.co/5hJNkf7otY
Tarugoconf (@tarugoconf) Deno is awesome. If you use it right, you'll never want to go back to Node - and Lume (https://t.co/EIFgNe07Sc) does it right: powerful, developer-friendly, super simple, and extremely flexible static site generation.
@dragonwocky Lume is a fantastic tool. It’s more powerful and flexible than any static site generator I’ve used in 5 years of web development.
Braden East (@bradenthehair) This is a nice looking static site generator for Deno. Reminds me of 11ty a bit. https://t.co/EiE4yOHlmS
Matthew Phillips (@matthewcp) I was having paralysis regarding what static generator to write my website in and I’ve finally decided to settle on Lume (a static generator written in Deno). I like it and it’s easy to configure
@automaetopia tapi sekarang sih pengennya pakai lumeland https://t.co/v6konf7O0Z
Poes (@kuspoes) Lume static site generator https://t.co/Lr9GTGUOlB
Deno (@deno_land) Personally I migrated from Jekyll to Eleventy to Lume (https://t.co/aSHo422kxJ). And I love it. Github pages is fine, if you are building it yourself (not relying on Github's MD parser).
Fernando Serboncini (@fserb) Lume…another Static Site Generator (SSG) but this time built on Deno. 🔥🦖
Love the logo. https://t.co/ajHHcXMnfq
