- All the static file of these notes will under `root/static/resources` with their respective names as per in notes.
- For Gatsby
- All notes will be in a folder inisde your `root/src/markdown`.And note wil be named `note.title-note.id`
- All the static file of these notes will under `root/static` with their respective names as per in notes.
- For Jekyll
- All notes will be in a folder inisde your `root/_posts`.And note will be named as `YYYY-MM-DD-note.title-note.id`
- All the static file of these notes will under `root/resources`with their respective names as per in notes.
> Note : After exporting new path of static file are updated in notes as per instruction given by the ssg to deal with static file.After that you can change it accordingly.
## Some basic terminologies -
1. **SSG** - Static Site Generator

Let us take one example of a notebook with 3 notes and 1 sub-notebook.Furthermore sub-notebook have 2 notes and 1 sub-sub-notebook.And this sub-sub-notebook also having 2 notes.
```
Notebook

| |_ _ _sub-note-1
| |_ _ _sub-note-2
| |_ _ _Sub-Sub-Notebook
| |_ _ _sub-sub-note-1
| |_ _ _sub-sub-note-2
|_ _ _note-1
|_ _ _note-2
|_ _ _note-3
```
