the very specialized static site generator behind octothorpean.org

It depends on the chevron mustache-like template library. Requirements look something like chevron==0.14.0.

Web page style/JS is built with Bootstrap.

This spoiler-free repo doesn't contain puzzle content. It's just a static site generator that slurps in puzzle content in a directory on my home machine's hard drive and generates site pages in another directory on my home machine's hard drive.

"Deploy" is scp.

Instead of a static site, Octothorpean used to be a Google App Engine app; don't be surprised if you bump into old info that thinks that's still true.
