<h2 id="01why">01. Why</h2>
<p>You might know there already exist quite a lot of <a href="https://medium.com/codingthesmartway-com-blog/top-static-site-generators-for-2019-26a4c8afcc05">static site generators</a>, why create another one? Because <strong>they are not good enough</strong> for <a href="http://opengamestudio.org">Opensource Game Studio</a> needs.</p>
<p>Here's a list of <strong>features we don't need</strong>:</p>
<table>
<thead>

<th>№</th>
<th>Unwelcome feature</th>
<th>Note</th>

<tbody>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>Learning anything beyond HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Markdown</td>
<td>These technologies are enough to deliver information to users</td>

<tr>
<td>2</td>
<td>Server side</td>
<td>Nobody should be able to pull the plug on you except yourself</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>Installation</td>
<td>We had enough updates that were never requested</td>

<p>Consequently, here is a list of <strong>PSKOV features</strong>:</p>
<table>

<th>№</th>
<th>PSKOV feature</th>
<th>Note</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>Bare HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Markdown</td>
<td>No need for template language, web framework or anything else</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>2</td>
<td>Client side</td>
<td><strong>PSKOV</strong> is a client side JavaScript application, it runs solely on your device</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>Optional installation</td>
<td><strong>PSKOV</strong> is available at <a href="http://opengamestudio.org/pskov">http://opengamestudio.org/pskov</a>. However, if you want to keep <strong>PSKOV</strong> locally, you can get <strong>PSKOV</strong> single HTML file <a href="http://opengamestudio.org/pskov-201905.html">here</a> and open it locally</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>4</td>
<td>Comprehensible source code</td>
<td><strong>PSKOV</strong> is a <a href="http://opengamestudio.org/pskov-201905.html">single HTML file</a> with less than 10000 lines of code</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>5</td>
<td>Decades long support (DLS)</td>
<td>You can use <strong>PSKOV</strong> on both Windows 2000 and Windows 2030*</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>* Windows 2030 does not (yet) exist, we simply refer to the fact that <strong>PSKOV</strong> is designed to work for operating systems released in the range of years 2000-2030</p>
