Static Web Publisher adds a small block of JSON metadata to each post and page. This metadata allows compatible apps and browser extensions to generate reader-friendly, static representations of your content — versions that can visually highlight connections to other pages across the Web.

Visitors without supporting software will see your site exactly as before. Nothing about its appearance or behavior changes for regular users.

The Static Web is a new approach to building a more interconnected Web. You can learn more about it here.

Background

This project is inspired by the long-standing ideas of hypertext pioneer Ted Nelson.

Current support

The new formats (HDOCs) this plugin works with are currently supported by:

Visible Connections
— a Chrome extension that shows visible connections between web pages in your browser,

LZ Desktop
— a standalone app for exploring and creating Web 1.1 content.

Looking ahead

More apps — especially reader apps, and eventually browsers — will be able to support Static Web data formats in the future.
