How these numbers are calculated

TechLeads scans public websites and detects Jekyll from signals in the page HTML, scripts, cookies, HTTP headers and DNS records. Market share is Jekyll's website count divided by the website counts of all Static site generator technologies we track; a site using two Static site generator tools counts for both. Counts were last refreshed on October 9, 2026 and update daily.
