Project is built on top of Jekyll - simple, blog-aware, static site generator. Jekyll also happens to be the engine behind GitHub Pages, which means you can use Jekyll to host your website from GitHub’s servers for free. Learn more about Jekyll.
Check if you have all requirements for local environment. To install all development dependencies install Bundler.
gem install bundlerand run next command from root folder:
bundle installTo start Jekyll run:
jekyll serve -wSite will be available at http://127.0.0.1:4000/ or http://localhost:4000/
NOTE: in this mode all changes to html and data files will be automatically regenerated, but after changing _config.yml you have to restart server.
