+# Alchemy Website
+The source for `alchemy.rs`, which is hosted on GitHub Pages.
+
+## To Edit...
+This website is a static site, backed by [Zola](https://www.getzola.org/documentation/getting-started/installation/). You'll need to install it to develop it locally. Otherwise... have at it.
+
+If you make substantial changes, make sure the build command outputs to the proper directory:
+
+```
+zola build --output-dir /path/to/alchemy/docs/folder
+```
