+@subheading Building the website from scratch for local checking
+
+Initial setup:
+
+Create directories:
+
+@example
+$HOME/lilypond/
+$HOME/lilypond/media/
+$HOME/lilypond/trusted-scripts/
+@end example
+
+To reduce the CPU burden on the shared host (as well as some
+security concerns), the 'Documentation/pictures/' and
+'Documentation/web/ly-examples/' directories are **not** compiled.
+We will do this ourselves right now.
+
+Go to your lilypond build directory.  make doc.
+
+Set up some variables (you'll only do this once:)
+
+@example
+BUILD_DIR=$HOME/lilypond-git
+PICS=$BUILD_DIR/Documentation/pictures/
+EXAMPLES=$BUILD_DIR/Documentation/web/ly-examples/
+@end example
+
+Copy files over:
+
+@example
+cp -r $PICS $HOME/lilypond/media/pictures
+cp -r $EXAMPLES $HOME/lilypond/media/ly-examples
+@end example
+
+Get the scripts you need.  First define these variables:
+
+@example
+GIT=$HOME/lilypond-git
+DEST=$HOME/lilypond/trusted-scripts
+@end example
+
+Then do the copying:
+
+@smallexample
+cp $GIT/make/website.make $DEST/website.make
+cp $GIT/Documentation/lilypond-texi2html.init $DEST/lilypond-texi2html.init
+cp $GIT/scripts/build/extract_texi_filenames.py  $DEST/extract_texi_filenames.py
+cp $GIT/scripts/build/create-version-itexi.py $DEST/create-version-itexi.py
+cp $GIT/scripts/build/create-weblinks-itexi.py $DEST/create-weblinks-itexi.py
+cp $GIT/scripts/build/mass-link.py $DEST/mass-link.py
+cp $GIT/scripts/build/website_post.py $DEST/website_post.py
+cp $GIT/scripts/build/bib2texi.py $DEST/bib2texi.py
+cp $GIT/Documentation/web/server/lilypond.org.htaccess $DEST/lilypond.org.htaccess
+cp $GIT/Documentation/web/server/website-dir.htaccess $DEST/website-dir.htaccess
+@end smallexample
+
+Delete your build directory (or maybe just rename your build
+directory to build-old).
+
+@example
+cd $HOME/lilypond
+@end example
+
+Run
+
+@example
+make -f ../lilypond-git/make/website.make WEBSITE_ONLY_BUILD=1 \
+  TOP_SRC_DIR=$HOME/lilypond-git/ \
+  TEXI2HTML_PROGRAM=texi2html \
+  website
+@end example
+
+The website should be at:
+
+@example
+$HOME/lilypond/out-website/website/index.html
+@end example
+
+@subheading Building the online website
