#2Please, everyone, don't use the "unlicense" for software. It makes it impossible to use / contribute globally. See e.g. here: https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/1471...
Re: Ivy – A static website generator built in Python
#3Is there a list of available extensions somewhere?

#4No purchase necessary! The title and the slogan on the site seem to infer something else. It's public domain source, it says at the bottom of the page. Glad to see more static generators, not sure how this is better or different than the other many

#6Not sure if OP is the developer behind this but...
As a happy user of Pelican[0], a different Python based static site generator. Why would I want to switch over to Ivy?

The fear-mongering about public domain seems to drift further and further from reality. Is SQLite "impossible" to use globally? Its public domain dedication is even more terse than the unlicense. If it really does become a practical issue for Germans, maybe the real problem is the German legal system.

It's unlikely to become a practical issue IMO (not a lawyer) but the German legal system has simply no notion of dedicating something to public domain like in the US. From what I've heard in my computer law course in university, you can safely assume that the authors/copyright holders of software like SQLite3 will not pursue their rights and use the software. If they decide to go after you legally, then you have to comply.
So the "unlicense" or "public domain" license is basically not more than a weak promise that the author won't sue you over any usage which they can break at any moment. On a proper license, you'd be safe if you comply with the license.

Pelican is great, I find it very flexible thanks to its many plugins. I wished it was maintained a bit more though, there are a lot of PRs waiting for reviews[0].
