# Rustipo > Rustipo is a Markdown-first static site generator written in Rust for blogs, docs, notes, and personal sites. It uses Tera templates for layout and keeps theme structure separate from palette-driven styling. Use the published docs site as the primary source for end-user workflows and feature behavior. Use the GitHub repository docs for contributor guidance, release workflow details, and repository-specific context. ## Start Here - [Rustipo docs home](https://fcendesu.github.io/rustipo/): High-level overview of the project and its strengths. - [Getting started](https://fcendesu.github.io/rustipo/guides/getting-started/): Install Rustipo, create a site, choose a palette, and preview locally. - [CLI reference](https://fcendesu.github.io/rustipo/reference/cli/): Commands, deployment helpers, and recommended local workflow. ## Core Concepts - [Content model](https://fcendesu.github.io/rustipo/reference/content-model/): Markdown organization, frontmatter, routes, taxonomies, and authoring behavior. - [Themes and palettes](https://fcendesu.github.io/rustipo/reference/themes-and-palettes/): Built-in themes, palette selection, theme contracts, and image helper support. - [Examples](https://fcendesu.github.io/rustipo/examples/): Representative site shapes for personal sites, journals, and knowledge bases. ## Docs And Deployment - [Build the docs site](https://fcendesu.github.io/rustipo/guides/building-the-docs-site/): How the in-repo documentation project is built and published. - [GitHub releases](https://github.com/fcendesu/rustipo/releases): Release notes, binaries, and tagged versions. ## Contributing And Project Metadata - [Contributing guide](https://fcendesu.github.io/rustipo/guides/contributing/): How to contribute code, docs, and examples back to Rustipo. - [Repository README](https://github.com/fcendesu/rustipo/blob/master/README.md): Project-facing install story, examples, and contributor entry points. - [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/fcendesu/rustipo/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md): Repository contributor expectations and local workflow. - [Security policy](https://github.com/fcendesu/rustipo/blob/master/SECURITY.md): Private reporting guidance for vulnerabilities.
