## Build
hyperglass is build with [NextJS](https://nextjs.org/), a [React](https://reactjs.org/)-based UI framework that supports server-side rendering and static exporting, which contribute to hyperglass's speed and SEO-friendliness. At startup, hyperglass creates a new "UI build", which is a static export of the site and includes some elements of the [configuration](parameters).
This UI build process can be run manually via the hyperglass CLI:
```shell-session
$ hyperglass build-ui
✅ Completed UI build in production mode
```
Or with the `--build` CLI flag on startup:
```shell-session
$ hyperglass start --build
```
The UI build will run automatically any time the hyperglass configuration or version changes.

:::note From the developer
If your organization's policy allows, and you don't mind, I request that you keep `credit` enabled. Remember: my goal for this project is get more networks to use looking glasses to make all of our lives easier. Because it's primarily other network operators who will use this tool to begin with, I'd love for any operators that use your looking glass to know where they can get their own.

### `opengraph`
If you're not familiar with [OpenGraph](https://ogp.me/), it's the thing that generates the pretty pictures, titles, and descriptions for links when you post them to sites/tools such as Facebook, Twitter, Slack, etc.
By default, [this Opengraph image](/opengraph.jpg) is set. If you define one with `image`, hyperglass will automatically generate an Opengraph image using the following methodology:
- If the image is already 1200x630, it will be used
- If the image is or is not 1200x630, but contains transparency (like in a `.png` formatted image), it will be converted to a JPEG file with the [`black`](theme#colors) used as the background color.
