Static generators, such as the Wimshurst and the Van deGraaff, both separate

charges by rubbing/scraping one surface against another. They differ in how

they store the charge before the zzapp occurs.

How is building up electric charges on a Van de Graaff generator an example of static electricity?

Building up electric charges on a Van de Graaff generator is an example of static electricity because it involves the accumulation of excess electrons on the surface of the generator, creating a static charge. This static charge can then be transferred to other objects through contact or induction, resulting in static electricity phenomena such as sparks or attraction/repulsion between objects.
