Getting Started with Static Sites

A static site is just HTML, CSS, and maybe a little JavaScript. No database, no server-side runtime—just files.

Why static?

• Fast. Every page is a file. No queries, no rendering on request.
• Simple. Deploy anywhere: any host, CDN, or object storage.
• Stable. Fewer moving parts, fewer things to break.

A minimal stack

1. Write content in Markdown.
2. Run a generator (e.g. Hugo) to produce HTML.
3. Upload the output folder. Done.

Inline code and fenced blocks work as expected:

hugo
# Output in public/

Blockquotes are useful for callouts or quoted text. Keep the theme minimal and the content clear.

That’s it. No external dependencies, no build pipeline beyond the generator itself.
