raycho

Raycho is a small, developer-focused publisher that offers a single, tightly-scoped tool: a cross-platform static-site generator that pairs a visual drag-and-drop GUI with the speed and simplicity of Go-based builds. Aimed at designers, technical writers, and solo developers who want to launch fast sites without touching the command line, the application wraps the usual Jekyll/Hugo-style workflow into a friendly desktop interface. Users drop Markdown, HTML, or image assets into project folders, arrange them through a tree view, and click “Build” to obtain a minified, CDN-ready bundle that can be pushed to GitHub Pages, Netlify, or any S3-compatible host. Behind the scenes the engine supports Go templates, live-reload preview, asset fingerprinting, and automatic sitemap generation, while still letting power users open the underlying config files for deeper customization. Because every site is rendered to plain static files, hosting costs stay minimal and attack surfaces remain small, making the tool attractive for portfolios, product micro-sites, documentation hubs, and lightweight blogs. The codebase is open under MIT license, releases are published directly to the project’s GitHub repository, and community contributions are welcomed through pull requests and issue trackers. Raycho’s software is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are sourced from trusted Windows package managers such as winget, always delivering the latest upstream build and allowing several applications to be installed in one batch operation.
