## Notes

WP2Static adds static site generation and deployment to WordPress as a plugin, so it needs a WordPress install to run. Its source is in the [elementor/wp2static repository](https://github.com/elementor/wp2static) on GitHub. The README says Strattic keeps the plugin available and maintained for open source users, and lists three ways to install it: a git clone followed by `composer install`, `composer require`, or an installer zip.

## Worth knowing

The `composer require wp2static/wp2static` command in the README does not resolve on Packagist, where the package is listed as leonstafford/wp2static. The project's website and documentation did not respond when checked, so the install steps come from the README alone.
