Static Websites Overview

Static sites are pre-rendered HTML, CSS, and JS files served from a web server or CDN. They are fast, secure, and easy to deploy. Typical workflow:

  • Prerequisites: Install the frameworkโ€™s CLI and runtime (Node.js, Ruby, Python, etc.).
  • Create project: Use a starter/template or CLI to scaffold.
  • Run locally: Start a dev server with hot reload.
  • Build: Produce static files into a dist, build, public, or site folder.
  • Deploy: Upload the output folder to any static host (Netlify, Vercel, GitHub Pages, S3, Azure Static Web Apps, etc.).

Refer to the framework-specific pages for exact commands.
