Running locally

Prerequisites

To run this locally, you need Ruby and the bunder gem installed.

  • Highly recommend managing your ruby versions via rvm.
    • Also highly recommend NOT using the Ubuntu/debian package for this as it never seems to work. Follow the instructions in this section instead.
  • rvm install RUBY_VERSION - as of this writing, Ruby 2.7.1 was the latest and known to work
  • gem install bundler

Build and run jekyll

To run this locally, run the following commands

  • cd docs (in not already in this directory)
  • bundler install - installs github’s flavor of jekyll and its dependencies
  • bundler exec jekyll serve - runs the site at http://localhost:4000/
