To test locally, you need to do:

  $ GUIX_WEB_SITE_LOCAL=3Dyes haunt build
  $ haunt serve

There should be no broken links, except for links to the manual or other
parts of gnu.org.

I suppose this should go to README=E2=80=A6

That=E2=80=99s on purpose, so that people don=E2=80=99t need to have Guix i=
nstalled to
hack on the web site.

We build these pages separately using the =E2=80=98export-web-page=E2=80=99=
 procedure.

HTH!
