Investigate building the site as a static html page to improve page loads

[EricPedley]

If you really want to speed up the initial page load, I think a better solution would be SSG on build, so we serve html instead of waiting for javascript to render. Might require a bit of work to handle network calls for search though.

If anyone looks into how we would go about doing static site generation as an HTML file instead of js bundle, post your research findings here.

This setup for manually running webpack might be useful: https://github.com/icssc/AntAlmanac/tree/manual-webpack Also see this comment: https://github.com/icssc/AntAlmanac/pull/406#issuecomment-1186294798
