## Frequently asked questions

### What is a static site generator?

A static site generator translates what you've built into HTML, CSS, and JS files that are ready to be served to users. Static sites don't require server-side processing or databases, making hosting dead simple. For example, if a visitor goes to "/contact", the HTML file in the /contact folder is loaded.
