The web is noisy. Whisper is quiet.

Whisper is a small site engine, ideal for people seeking to maintain static web content in a simple, straightforward, and convenient manner. It lets you manage your web site — whether it’s simple or sophisticated — without the fuss of complex tools or blog-centric bloatware.

Whisper builds your site dynamically, generating it from templates with a small (but highly expandable) set of custom tags. The result is a clean, consistent site that’s easy to manage. Its control panel lets you modify your templates and stylesheet, create and edit pages, and more. Whisper includes Textile and Markdown, so you don’t have to fuss with HTML in order to add content. Whisper stays out of your way.

Whisper is as flexible as it is simple. Your web pages can be generated as HTML, PHP, or any other type of file that you’d like. Whisper is lightweight and efficient, and does not require a database. It sports a simple yet powerful plugin system, allowing for endless customization and expansion. And it’s 100% free to everyone, and always will be.
