unify
A static site generator for plain HTML. Write a layout or nav once and it lands on every page. This site is built with it.
npm install -g @fwdslsh/unify
~/fwdslsh $
Slash a path to a better future
fwdslsh is a group of indie developers who think the good version of what comes next gets built in the open and shared. We make open-source tools, try things out in the fwdslsh lab, and write up what we learn so anyone can use it. A rising tide lifts all boats.
Tools
Right now that's mostly tools for a web that AI agents and people both use: sites that are easy to publish and easy to read, by eye or by agent.
rabit
A small JSON manifest that tells agents what a site holds and where, so they don't have to crawl for it.
bun add -g @fwdslsh/rabit-client
akm
One library of skills, scripts and knowledge for any coding agent that can run shell commands.
npm install -g akm-cli
gutterpress
Write a book in Markdown, lay it out with CSS, export a print-ready PDF. A desktop app with a CLI.
npm install -g gutterpress
From the lab
Notes, experiments and write-ups from members. What we figure out, we pass on.
- A model leaderboard wasn't enough. We kept the ledger.
by fwdslsh
Compare quality and speed across 129 recorded model runs, with filters for hardware, test suites, and completed evaluations.
- How this site is built
by fwdslsh
How fwdslsh.dev uses unify to share layouts, generate its post lists, and check the finished site before deployment.
