Does anyone know of a static site generator where I can write in Markdown and make my links to other local Markdown documents using their local file extension and the generator will translate it to the proper thing in the end? This feels like it would be the most obvious thing but neither Jekyll nor Eleventy support it. I'm getting annoyed of setting them up just to test it.
That should link to the
Foo.htmlonce generated. NotFoo.md.Would this plug-in work for you? https://github.com/benbalter/jekyll-relative-links
Thanks, that looks very promising. For folks following in my footsteps your next question may be how to remove front matter. Here is another plug-in.
GitHub Pages is one of those terms that is very overloaded and because of that it is super hard to find what you're looking for. I could've sworn using the old school "black box" GitHub Pages did this and it turns out it does. It has both the relative link plugin and the optional front matter pkugin.
The link above mentioned the GutHub Pages dependency list which then mentioned the
github-pagesgem which has all of them together. So finally I searched for "GitHub Pages docker" instead of "Jekyll docker" and lo and behold, here it is. The most recent commit is three weeks ago so it seems maintained. So finally I have a way to just simply get HTML files from some Markdown files in a simple way all in a container so I don't have to worry about how Jekyll doesn't technically support Windows.
