Description

I know that generating a .pdf file would lead to:

  • Not current content/guidelines
  • Some aesthetic features not present (Syntax Highlighting, nice TOC on the left)

But when building the site locally we can still use features of the website,
and If we want to update it we just need to execute git pull on the cloned repository,

I've looked on the build workflow file: https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/.github/workflows/build.yml
But executing make -k in ./scripts folder only generates .cpp files

Research direction

Start with .github/workflows/build.yml and the scripts directory, then compare the workflow commands with the reported result of running make -k. Done means documenting the supported local or offline build steps and the resulting website features, or clearly recording any limitation found.
