Sigal is yet another simple static gallery generator. It's written in Python and it allows to build a static gallery of images with the following features:

• Process directories recursively.
• Generate HTML pages using jinja2 templates.
• Relative links for a portable output.
• Support themes, videos, EXIF tags, zip download.
• Parallel processing.
• MIT licensed.

The idea behind Sigal is to ease the use of the javascript librairies like galleria. These librairies do a great job to display the images, Sigal does what is missing: resize images, create thumbnails, generate html pages.

Sigal is compatible with Python 2.7 and 3.3.
