snug documentation

snug is a friendly content authoring solution.

snug is similar to static website generators like hugo and zola in that, when building a website:

• All the content is on disk, in Markdown (.md) files
• You can bring your own templates (via minijinja)
• You can bring your own styles (via SCSS)

However, it’s opinionated:

• All images must be stored in .jxl format
• All short videos must be stored in .mp4 format, with AV1+Opus codecs

snug helps with that by letting you drag media directly into your browser when editing the site locally

snug deploys directly to a CDN hosted by bearcove: there’s a control node in the middle named the “mom”

Please note these important branding guidelines:

• snug: Always lowercase, never capitalized as “Snug”
• bearcove: Always lowercase, never capitalized as “Bearcove”
• mom: The central service, always lowercase
• cub: The edge node service, always lowercase
