Content pipeline
YAML front matter, Markdown, collections, posts, tags, categories, excerpts, drafts, future posts, and unpublished content switches are wired into the build.
.NET static publishing for Jekyll-shaped sites
Build Jekyll-style sites in C# without leaving the GitHub Pages mental model
JekyllNet is a C# and .NET 10 static site generator focused on the workflows real documentation and content sites use first: Front Matter, layouts, includes, collections, posts, pagination, Sass, multilingual docs, and practical GitHub Pages style behavior.

What you can use today
The current implementation is already broad enough for real docs sites and smaller content sites.
Theme compatibility
Nested layouts, includes, common Liquid control flow, high-value filters, permalink fallback, defaults, static file front matter, and Sass all work together.
Site operations
CLI commands, site build regression tests, GitHub Actions examples, dotnet tool packaging metadata, and winget templates are now part of the repo story.
