                    [-f TEMPLATE_TEXT_FOOT] [-i TEMPLATE_INDEX_HEAD]
                    [-I TEMPLATE_INDEX_FOOT] [-s STYLESHEET]
                    [-e EXTRA_INDEX_CONTENT]
                    notes

positional arguments:
  notes

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -o OUTPUT_DIR, --output-dir OUTPUT_DIR
  -t TEMPLATE, --template TEMPLATE
  -H TEMPLATE_TEXT_HEAD, --template-text-head TEMPLATE_TEXT_HEAD
  -f TEMPLATE_TEXT_FOOT, --template-text-foot TEMPLATE_TEXT_FOOT
  -i TEMPLATE_INDEX_HEAD, --template-index-head TEMPLATE_INDEX_HEAD
  -I TEMPLATE_INDEX_FOOT, --template-index-foot TEMPLATE_INDEX_FOOT
  -s STYLESHEET, --stylesheet STYLESHEET
  -e EXTRA_INDEX_CONTENT, --extra-index-content EXTRA_INDEX_CONTENT
```

The command will generate a website in the `output-dir` directory (`./web` by default).
It will then generate a list of all note files and put it in `index.html`.

Then you just have to point a webserver at `output-dir`.
