The project history

The xPack Build Box history is presented in a separate History page.

The web site

The first web site for the xPack Build Box project was published in July 2019 as a sub-site of the xPack site, implemented using Jekyll.

In December 2024, as part of the project restructuring, the website content was migrated from the xPack Jekyll sub-site to a local Docusaurus configuration stored in the website folder. To ensure continuity, HTML <meta> redirects were added to the old pages. Additionally, a GitHub Action was implemented to automatically publish the site upon any pushes to the website Git branch.
