## About the Repository

This repository hosts the source code used to generate the static website for F/OSS Comics.

The static webpage generator was adapted from [kartiknair's blog](https://github.com/kartiknair/blog) and is styled using the [Archie theme](https://github.com/athul/archie). I've customized the generator to better suit the needs of the F/OSS Comics series.

## How to Build and View the Comics

To build the static website for the comics, run:

```bash

npm run build

```

After building the site, you can start a local web server to view the comics:

```

npm start

```

Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000 to read the comics.
