| License | Jekyll is open source and distributed under the MIT License. | The Sculpin GitHub repository identifies the project as MIT licensed. |
| Purpose | Jekyll transforms plain text into static websites and blogs. | Sculpin combines Markdown content and Twig templates to generate static HTML websites. |
