# FolderWeb

**Just enough, nothing more.** Drop Markdown files in folders, and they become pages. No database, no build process.

## What is FolderWeb?

FolderWeb is a content publishing framework where your file system is your content management system. Create a folder structure that mirrors your site hierarchy, drop files into folders, and they immediately become pages.

**Core principle**: Simplicity and longevity over features and complexity.

## Key Features

- **File-based routing**: `content/blog/post/` → `yoursite.com/blog/post/`
- **Multi-language support**: Built-in i18n with URL prefixes
- **Template system**: Override defaults with custom templates
- **Modern CSS**: CSS variables, nesting, OKLCH colors, grid layouts
- **No build process**: Save and refresh—see changes immediately
