The opposite of a dynamic file 🙂 It means that the file content will be sent to the client (usually a browser) as is without server intervention. By contrast, a dynamic file is parsed by the server which then renders a new set of data based on the dynamic file template. A dynamic file will typically use some form of server-side code to let the server know what type of modifications need to be made.
