Xlog CLI allow for generating static website from source directory. this is how this website is generated.

To generate a static website using Xlog use the --build flag with a path as destination for example:

1xlog --build /path/to/output

Xlog will build all markdown files to HTML and extract all static files from inside the binary executable file to that destination directory. Then it will terminate.

Building process creates a xlog server instance and request all pages and save it to desk. That allow xlog extensions to define a new handler that renders a page. the page will work in both usecases: local server, static site generation. extensions has to also register the path for build using RegisteBuildPage function

While building static site xlog turns on READONLY mode.
