<p>The <a href="https://google.github.io/filament">github landing page</a> for Filament displays an extensive introduction to Filament. It
links to <code>BUILDING.md</code> and <code>CONTRIBUTING.md</code>, which are conventional pages for building or
contributing to the project. We copy these pages from their respective locations in the project
tree into <code>docs_src/src_mdbook/src/dup</code>. Moreover, to restore valid linkage between the pages, we need
to perform a number of URL replacements in addition to the copy. These replacements are

<h3 id="readmes"><a class="header" href="#readmes">READMEs</a></h3>
<p>Filament depends on a number of libraries, which reside in the directory <code>libs</code>. These individual
libaries often have README.md in their root to describe itself. We collect these descriptions into our
book. In addition, client usage of Filament also requires using a set of binary tools, which are
located in <code>tools</code>. Some of tools also have README.md as description. We also collect them into the book.</p>

<li><code>run.py</code> maps the <code>.html</code> and <code>.md</code> WebGL outputs from the <code>out/cmake-webgl-release/...</code> directory into <code>docs_src/src_mdbook/src/samples/web/</code> using the instructions in <code>duplicates.json</code>.</li>
<li>While transferring <code>.html</code> to <code>.md</code>, <code>run.py</code> strips away the <code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;</code>, <code>&lt;head&gt;</code>, and <code>&lt;html&gt;</code> tags. By retaining only the <code>&lt;style&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;body&gt;</code> elements, the HTML samples can be embedded cleanly into the <code>mdbook</code> site template without corrupting the DOM. It additionally collapses double-newlines (<code>\n\n</code>) because Markdown parsers will mistakenly fragment and wrap multi-line HTML tags into <code>&lt;p&gt;</code> blocks.</li>
<li>After <code>mdbook build</code> concludes, <code>docs_src/build/copy_web_docs.py</code> is invoked. This script creates <code>web/lib</code> and <code>web/assets</code> directories inside the final <code>book/</code> output directory, copying in the compiled WebAssembly engine (<code>filament.wasm</code>/<code>filament.js</code>) and any necessary assets (<code>.filamat</code>, <code>.glb</code>, <code>.ktx</code>, etc.).</li>
<li>Finally, <code>copy_web_docs.py</code> performs a regex pass over all HTML pages in <code>book/samples/web/</code> and <code>book/remote/</code> to rewrite their inline resource URLs to securely point to the shared <code>web/lib</code> and <code>web/assets</code> directories. It also dynamically overrides the <code>asset.loadResources()</code> Javascript call with an absolute URL (<code>new URL(..., window.location.href)</code>) so that <code>.glb</code>/<code>.gltf</code> assets fetch their internal <code>.bin</code> chunks correctly.</li>
