lichen.page is a piece of software fan-fiction (aka a fork) of lichen-markdown (https://lichen.commoninternet.net) which was itself a fork of lichen-gemini (https://codeberg.org/stringbone/lichen/src/branch/master), which is composed of a few forth scripts.

In this third edition of the trilogy, the CMS was rewritten in Rust to enable realtime collaboration using yrs and work with any static site generator.
