What is the official and easiest way to build a static-files generated website (with separate .html files) with React ?

I finally used https://github.com/Daydreamer-riri/vite-react-ssg which is very good, but I was quite surprised to not find anything clear way to do so in the docs.

(This part is not clear at all : https://react.dev/blog/2022/06/15/react-labs-what-we-have-been-working-on-june-2022#static-server-rendering-optimizations)

+1... This issue looks to me a major missing information in React documentation.

Any news about this one ?

I'm an experienced React dev who ended up here after spending an hour completely lost on how to achieve basic SSG so I'll echo that this is missing information

Daydreamer-riri Riri has the official way with vite-react-ssg, as long as React does not improve the docs about this..

Closed by https://github.com/reactjs/react.dev/pull/7626, along with https://github.com/reactjs/react.dev/pull/7495 and https://github.com/reactjs/react.dev/pull/7624. The easiest way is to use a framework that supports this, but if you choose to use a build tool and build this yourself, you'll need to consult the docs of the build tool you choose or build it yourself using the react-dom static APIs.
