#Contributing to documentation

Setting up Jekyll on Windows

1. We use this easy to follow Jekyll on Windows guide. Use the pygments option when you go through the install.

Iterating on documentation

1. Using Command Prompt, from within the content folder start a local server: jekyll serve --watch
2. If prompted by the firewall, allow Jekyll to serve content
3. Open your web browser and point it to the local server. localhost:4000 is the default
4. Now you have your own version of the documentation site!
5. You can make changes to the pages using your favorite text editor.

Documentation rules

• For samples, please use Jekyll's Kramdown flavored Markdown to get nice formatting when rendered as a webpage.
• For README.md files, please use Github Flavored Markdown to get nice formatting on the file browser.
• Please do not use HTML
• For samples, please append {:target="_blank"}, so the link opens in a new page
