+title: Introducing Haunt
+date: 2015-08-08 10:00:00
+tags: news, releases
+summary: Haunt 0.1 released
+---
+
+I am pleased to announce the first alpha release of Haunt, yet another
+static site generator. Does the world really need another one of
+those? No, but Haunt is special because it is written in Guile
+Scheme, a clean and elegant Lisp dialect, which allows users to
+compose their websites using functional programming techniques. Using
+a general-purpose, extensible programming language to build websites
+allows Haunt users to view their website as not just mere data, but a
+program. Haunt empowers the user to build the abstractions they need
+to make a great static website without getting in the way.
+
+At its core, Haunt is a very simple program. To build your site,
+Haunt takes your posts and static assets as input, passes them to a
+series of user-defined building procedures that return one or more
+pages, and outputs all of the generated pages to the file system.
+That's all there is to it. All of the "good stuff" is implemented in
+the builder procedures. Haunt 0.1 comes with simple blog and Atom
+feed generators.
+
+Haunt is built to be as hackable as possible, and patches to improve
+it are very much welcome. In particular, new post readers for common
+formats such as org-mode and Markdown are desired, along with a more
+robust blog builder and theme engine. In lieu of a mailing list,
+patches may be sent to `davet` at `gnu.org`.
+
+This blog is built with Haunt, by the way. :)
