historique

Historique du projet et usages

Cobalt is a Rust static site generator distributed as the `cobalt` command, packaged for Homebrew and as the `cobalt-bin` crate on crates.io. Its package-nerd appeal is that it is an early Rust-era take on the Jekyll-style static site workflow: source files, front matter, Liquid-style templates, and a small native CLI.

Historique du projet

The GitHub repository was created in 2014, and the changelog records `0.2` as the initial release. The project later organized around the `cobalt-org/cobalt.rs` repository and publishes the binary crate as `cobalt-bin`.

Cobalt's changelog shows the tool growing into a fuller site generator through 2016 and 2017, adding `serve`, `watch`, `new`, custom paths, RSS improvements, draft support, syntax highlighting experiments, generated binaries for macOS, Windows, and Linux, and a move from getopt to clap.

Historique d'adoption

Cobalt remains a niche but durable Rust CLI. crates.io lists `cobalt-bin` with tens of thousands of downloads, while Homebrew, Nix, Arch, Scoop, and WinGet packaging in the input show that the tool crossed beyond Cargo-only installation.

Modes d'utilisation

Users create a site with Cobalt's directory conventions and configure site-wide behavior in `_cobalt.yml`. The official docs describe `_cobalt.yml` as the default config file for site options, source and destination directories, front matter defaults, syntax highlighting, pages, posts, and assets.

The day-to-day CLI shape is familiar for static site generators: initialize or create content, build static output, and use local serving/watch workflows while editing.

Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

Cobalt is useful as a package-history marker for the period when Rust CLIs began replacing scripting-language developer tools. Its significance is not mass adoption; it is the way it packages a static-site workflow into a native binary and ships across Cargo and OS package managers.

The package is also a reminder that package names can be ambiguous: crates.io has an unrelated `cobalt` crate, while the static site generator's executable package is `cobalt-bin`.

Chronologie

2014: `cobalt-org/cobalt.rs` GitHub repository created.
2016: `cobalt-bin` crate created on crates.io.
2017: Changelog records generated binaries for macOS, Windows, and Linux in the 0.5 era and a larger 0.7.0 feature release.
2022: 0.18.0 drops `cobalt import` and improves local serving behavior.
2025: 0.20.0 switches Sass support from libsass to grass.
2026: 0.20.4 release published.

Related projects

Cobalt sits in the static-site-generator family with Jekyll, Hugo, Zola, and mdBook, and it uses Rust ecosystem pieces such as Cargo distribution and Rust templating/parsing libraries.
Its own docs are built and maintained separately in `cobalt-org/cobalt-org.github.io`, which the official documentation links as the docs source.
