1. Describe your site in a common templating language (Jade, Handlebars, etc..)
2. While in development, start a local web server and add "watchers" that will listen for content changes and re-render the site
3. Finally, you render the whole site in static HTML and deploy

  render() {
    return <div>Hello {this.props.name}</div>;
  }
}
