+[[!meta title="We are the static site generation!"]]
+
+# Current practice
+
+Currently [ikiwiki](http://ikiwiki.info) is adopted by the following reasons:
+
+1. There is a [Debian package](https://packages.debian.org/stable/ikiwiki).
+2. It's flexible enough to support both local or remote side static compilation:
+   * Local compilation by calling the `ikiwiki` command directly.
+   * Remotelly by using a [git hook](http://ikiwiki.info/rcs/git/).
+
+When it's said **both** it means that you don't need to choose either of the two options: you can choose or both simultaneously.
+
+## Static site example
+
+Here comes the mandadoty "Hello world" example from the statically generated site realm:
+
+    mkdir blog && cd blog
+    echo "Hello world..." > index.mdwn
+    ikiwiki --rebuild --exclude www . www
+
+That's it! You have a generated site sitting at your `www` subfolder which can be copied remotelly using `rsync`.
+
+## Version control
+
+It's a good pratice to keep your work under version control:
+
+    git init
+    echo "/.ikiwiki"       > .gitignore
+    echo "/recentchanges" >> .gitignore
+    echo "/www"           >> .gitignore
+    git add .
+    git commit -m "Initial import"
+
+## Add a bit of sofistication
+
+* Use [this Makefile](/Makefile) as an starting point to refresh and publish your wiki by simply running `make web`.
+* Use a [complete ikiwiki template](https://git.fluxo.info/?p=templates.git;a=tree;f=ikiwiki;h=HEAD) and change to your needs.
+* If you're a automation junkie, try the [puppet-ikiwiki](https://git.fluxo.info/puppet-ikiwiki.git) module.
+
+## Theming
+
+Currently using [Ikiwiki](http://ikiwiki.info) with [Bootstrap](http://twitter.github.io/bootstrap/):
+
+* [Templates](https://github.com/tgpfeiffer/ikiwiki-bootstrap-template).
+* [Bootswatch](http://bootswatch.com) themes.
+
+## Deployment
+
+You can create passwordless SSH keys and use [rrsync](http://www.guyrutenberg.com/2014/01/14/restricting-ssh-access-to-rsync/) ([2](http://wiki.hands.com/howto/passphraseless-ssh/)) to restrict access. Then add an entry into your `~/.ssh/config`:
+
+    Host blog.example.org blog
+      HostName blog.example.org
+      User blog
+      IdentityFile ~/.ssh/blog@blog.example.org
+
+Now simply run `make web_deploy` with the above mentioned `Makefile` do sync your static site!
