Description

Taking delivery issues in mind, maybe it would be very useful to have a SourceJS static site generator, that will create a static copy of the engine contents.

Static version will be limited to main functions only + all client-side JS, and will serve for next purposes:

  • Demo libraries distribution
  • Delivery to client
  • Fast setup, without NodeJS

Research direction
This feature request suggests creating a static site generator for SourceJS. No existing implementation or detailed discussion is present. To proceed, study the SourceJS engine source (likely in lib/) to understand component rendering and asset handling. Investigate existing build processes and client side JS to design static output. Maintainer input is needed to clarify scope and acceptance criteria.
