 # Compile From Sources
 
+This document explain how to create a FrankenPHP build that will load PHP as a dymanic library.
+This is the recommended method.
+
+Alternatively, [creating static builds](static.md) is also possible.
+
 ## Install PHP
 
 FrankenPHP is compatible with the PHP 8.2 and superior.

+# Create a Static Build
+
+Instead of using a local installation of the PHP library,
+it's possible to create a static build of FrankenPHP thanks to the great [static-php-cli project](https://github.com/crazywhalecc/static-php-cli) (despite its name, this project support all SAPIs, not only CLI).
+
+With this method, a single, portable, binary will contain the PHP interpreter, the Caddy web server and FrankenPHP!
+
+## Linux
+
+We provide a Docker image to build a Linux static binary:
+
+```console
+docker buildx bake --load static-builder
+docker cp $(docker create --name static-builder dunglas/frankenphp:static-builder):/go/src/app/caddy/frankenphp/frankenphp frankenphp ; docker rm static-builder
+```
+
+The resulting static binary is named `frankenphp` and is available in the current directory.
+
+If you want to build the static binary without Docker, take a look to the `static-builder.Dockerfile` file.
+
+### Custom Extensions
+
+By default, most popular PHP extensions are compiled.
+
+To reduce the size of the binary and to reduce the attack surface, you can choose the list of extensions to build using the `PHP_EXTENSIONS` Docker ARG.
+
+For instance, run the following command to only build the `opcache` extension:
+
+```console
+docker buildx bake --load --set static-builder.args.PHP_EXTENSIONS=opcache,pdo_sqlite static-builder
+# ...
+```
+
+See [the list of supported extensions](https://static-php-cli.zhamao.me/en/guide/extensions.html).
+
+### GitHub Token
+
+If you hit the GitHub API rate limit, set a GitHub Personal Access Token in an environment variable named `GITHUB_TOKEN`:
+
+```console
+GITHUB_TOKEN="xxx" docker --load buildx bake static-builder
+# ...
+```
+
+## macOS
+
+Run the following command to create a static binary for macOS:
+
+```console
+git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/crazywhalecc/static-php-cli.git
+cd static-php-cli
+composer install --no-dev -a
+./bin/spc doctor --auto-fix
+./bin/spc fetch --with-php=8.2 -A
+./bin/spc build --enable-zts --build-embed --debug "bcmath,calendar,ctype,curl,dba,dom,exif,filter,fileinfo,gd,iconv,intl,mbstring,mbregex,mysqli,mysqlnd,opcache,openssl,pcntl,pdo,pdo_mysql,pdo_pgsql,pdo_sqlite,pgsql,phar,posix,readline,redis,session,simplexml,sockets,sqlite3,tokenizer,xml,xmlreader,xmlwriter,zip,zlib,apcu"
+export CGO_CFLAGS="$(./buildroot/bin/php-config --includes | sed s#-I/#-I$PWD/buildroot/#g)"
+export CGO_LDFLAGS="-framework CoreFoundation -framework SystemConfiguration $(./buildroot/bin/php-config --ldflags) $(./buildroot/bin/php-config --libs)"
+
+git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/dunglas/frankenphp.git
+cd frankenphp/caddy/frankenphp
+go build -buildmode=pie -tags "cgo netgo osusergo static_build" -ldflags "-linkmode=external -extldflags -static-pie"
+```
