## Notes

Rspress is a React-based static site generator built on Rsbuild, made for documentation sites. Pages are Markdown and MDX files, and each file path maps to a route. Sites can carry several languages. A new project starts from the create-rspress scaffold, and the build runs on Node.js, Deno or Bun. The production output is HTML files plus static assets, and the [deployment guide](https://rspress.rs/guide/basic/deploy) puts them on static hosts such as GitHub Pages, with no server to run. Rspress is part of Rstack, a family of JavaScript tools.

## Worth knowing

The unscoped npm package named rspress holds the older major line. The current line is published as @rspress/core.
