# Generate static html
> _Experimental feature_
Generating static html files is good for SEO and speeds up the first rendering.
But this is not an advantage of docsify. If you only need powerful static documentation, choose another documentation tool like Gitbook or Vuepress.
## Configuration
You can configure it in a special config file.
_config.js_
```js
module.exports = {
template: `
My Doc
`, // or html file path
config: {
// docsify config
coverpage: true
}
};
```
## Generate
Please use docsify-cli 5.0+ and run this command.
```sh
docsify static docs -c config.js
```
## Simple Demo
