@LaurentGoderre awesome, thanks! btw, do you have any ideas on how we might feature your project (per your tweet)? This is something I've wanted to start doing for a while. |
|
You forgot about me :( |
|
@jonschlinkert I'm not sure. How do you usually do it? |
|
@daliwali thanks for adding your project here! I wouldn't forget about you, that's a nice project you put together! I'm adding a link to your project in our docs... there are a number of other projects I'll be listing here as I have time, I just wanted to get the thread started :-) @LaurentGoderre if I think out loud, here are some ideas of things we can do:
again, these are just ideas. we really don't have any restrictions here, so let me know what sounds interesting to you. perhaps think about the aspects of your project that you want to focus on, and decide what you would get the most value from. |
|
@pjackson28, what is your take on this? Is there a way you prefer ? |
|
@laurawesley Was there any good material that came out of the WxT CodeFest design jam that could be used for this purpose? Would be good to showcase the Web Experience Toolkit here since we are now using Assemble for template generation in WET v4.0. |

|
@joshfry that's great! nice work |
|
A made a generator that scaffold front end app and uses Assemble as part of the tool chain. I'm still learning how to use all the capabilities of Assemble, so it might not be the best implementation yet. |
|
👍 |

I'm using Assemble to create gh-pages documentation for an SCSS utilities library I'm starting: http://davidtheclark.github.io/scut/ I'm also using it for some projects at work, and if I can I'll post them here when they go live. I love it, by the way. Thanks! |
|
@davidtheclark thanks! |

We started using assemble mostly to do quick flat HTML projects for clients that didn't need a CMS. It quickly became our goto tool for starting up just about any dev project as we run our design phase in conjunction with front-end dev as much as possible - assemble lets us do this really well. We're now also planning on building a lightweight CMS on node.js - which 'publishes' content updates using assemble into flat files for the public facing website, still a long way to go in terms of a usable "back-end" editor for clients, but it's slowly coming together. |
|
@haustraliaer that sounds awesome! let us know if we can help |
|
I'm working on a simple bootstrap 3.0 template: http://hypercubed.github.io/assemble-bootstrap-template/ I started with generator-yawa, broke it down, then built it up again. The thing I like about assemble, so far, is that you can organize your source files as you see fit. |
|
@Hypercubed thanks! |
|
I'm using Assemble to build my interactive book: angularjsbook.com. Currently you will only see a landing page, but the final published product will be a multipage site with generated table of contents, etc. I'm writing the book in markdown of course. |
|
@quartzmo wow that's a great idea for the books. And I'm glad you're doing something about angular. I use that in my day job and I've been thinking about how to integrate it with assemble. Let me know if I can review or contribute to your book. Also if you have any ideas on how assemble can make use of angular, please let us know. |
|
@doowb I can always use reviewers! I'll email you. |
|
I think this is the main challenge with "nobackend" architectures. And it's something I'm interested in so I've been looking at how to solve this with this firebase and stripe. I think we could move this to another issue... possibly a plugin for assemble. |
|
@quartzmo whoa that's awesome! thanks for sharing that here! |
|
https://github.com/happyplan/happyplan now use assemble. |
|
👍 |
|
My blog is built entirely in Assemble - http://www.andismith.com I'm planning on writing a series of tutorials about how I did it. |
|
Awesome looking site! I'm looking forward to being "horrified by your Assemble hacks". |
|
@andismith that looks really good, and I know I would appreciate a writeup on how you got everything working, especially the blog section and how you use a singe "layout" for everything. The documentation is a bit lacking in that department, and I think having a nice tutorial for how to set up a standard "blog" within another website would be extremely helpful and go a long way toward getting a lot more usage. Any chance you could put your Gruntfile up as a gist, maybe? Just to poke at? |
|
Yeah, it's a custom Handlebars helper to loop through all posts in a collection, and a set of already create paged files that will fill as the page count increases. Yeah, there's some not very nice bits of code. Mostly the problem is there are lots of ../../ and ../../../../ paths. @ridespirals A series of tutorials is coming! I'm writing the first as we speak :) |
|
We built https://uk.believe.in using Assemble. |
|
Nice! thanks @robwebdev |
|
I just launched www.perf.rocks. Curated front-end performance resources. Built with assemble. |
|
👍 |
|
great looking project @robwebdev, thanks! |
|
Just released http://www.phpmyfaq.de/, you can check the source code here: https://github.com/phpMyFAQ/www.phpmyfaq.de |
|
We just launched phase I of diebold. Phase II is in few months when we move the static pages into Sitecore. Assemble.io really improved the productivity of our developers while delivering excellent quality. |
|
Have my humble blog here on Github running on Assemble, and am improving upon it. Love Assemble, wrote something about static site-building with Assemble over there as well, ( in the spirit of "documenting a learning curve"). Wouldn't mind any feedback on this blogpost either; here, or on Codepen in the comments. |
|
For us, Assemble also played its front end role in development of http://sennheiser-d1.com |
|
@charbelac, beautiful site! glad that Assemble was useful for your team! @atelierbram, both the site and write up are awesome. I think you did an amazing job of explaining assemble. We could learn a few things from you! @ain, another awesome site. you do great work! thanks for sharing these everyone! |
|
http://smaty.se/ is built with assemble v0.6.0. The WIP repo's at https://github.com/Melindrea/smaty.se |
|
https://github.com/elfacht/assemble-boilerplate Trying to get AngularJS work with it right now … |
|
We use Assemble on all of our front end builds at Building Blocks, we use a prototype website that builds the flat HTML ready for CMS integration: https://github.com/buildingblocks/bb-prototype-website I ❤️ Assemble! Great job! 😄 |
|
At Amaze we use a project very similar to the one used by Building Blocks, and for an identical purpose. Would love to use Assemble to output a live site. Maybe consuming JSON files generated by a simple CMS, when the templates are compiled. Great as that would be, it's not 'Enterprise' is it? :-) |
|
that's great! thanks for letting us know. @ajrowland yeah that seems totally doable. let's open up an issue somewhere or find a place to chat about it so we can pin down a wishlist |
|
www.accntoronto.com uses assemble as well. |
|
https://www.yesware.com/ is built using Assemble also. |
|
awesome, keep 'em coming! It's great to know how assemble is being used, helps us understand a bit more about what users need. thanks! |
|
I use assemble for both my personal website (https://www.yannickherzog.de) as well as for generating frontend templates for the next version of our university website at http://www.hs-offenburg.de. |
|
Im using assemble to compile selenese xml for our selenium regression test suite. Essentially I can reconfigure the test steps really easily across multiple files every time there is a change to the UI of our web app. |
|
We use Assemble pretty often at Barrel. It's been very useful for developing front-end systems while the back-end of a website or application is still being worked on, or where we're only contracted to deliver a static front-end. We have had some clients who went live with the Assemble-generated site, but usually as a temporary solution. One client actually continued using Grunt + Assemble as their only back-end for about two years before eventually migrating the site to a CMS. It's also come in handy for prototyping HTML email templates independent of the marketing platform. Recently we've been experimenting with using Assemble to generate static sites based on an external data source such as Contentful or a WordPress back-end using the JSON API. |
|
And just launched https://antoniusm.se which is my author page. It even includes a--for now--simple blog. The repo is on https://github.com/Melindrea/antoniusm.se |
|
We use Assemble w/Gulp and deploying to Heroku. http://www.transformicons.com |
|
I use Assemble to produce websites for my side business. I am also working it into our web strategy for websites at the medical school I work at. We are currently evaluating the possibility of removing all CMS installations in favor of static sites generated using Assemble. |
|
Not a secret that I am a big fan of assemble, here are some of my thoughts: Having started to use assemble recently on qliksite.io:
|
|
@stefanwalther that's great, thanks for the kind words in the article! |
|
@stefanwalther any particular reasons why you're not going for Github Pages instead of S3? |
|
To add to the above list, a search for the filename "assemblefile.js" on Github gives ~290 results that use the new API instead of Grunt. |
|
Most of the results are copies of metisMenu, templates and generate-docs, but a few were custom enough to stand out. I'll list some of them here as examples (apologies if they've been mentioned already):

and others
