Build this page
nix build .#ui
This page generates static HTML pages. One page per API function.
It automatically includes meta tags for other search engines like Google or Bing.
Searching within the page is done via pagefind which is only available in the production build.
Develop
nix develop
This command creates the node_modules
directory with all needed dependencies
based on dream2nix
.
