About

This is the source for the openastronomy.github.io website

Building

To build the site locally, you will need jekyll to be installed. Clone this repository locally, then inside it, type:

gem install bundler
bundler install

or use:

bundle install --path vendor/bundle

to install the dependencies locally at vendor/bundle.

You can then build the website with:

bundle exec jekyll build

To view the site locally, you will then need to run:

bundle exec jekyll serve

this will track the changes and rebuild automatically. However, it won't reflect changes on _config.yaml

Submodule

Note that this uses a submodule to complete the build process of the site. So you may need to do:

git submodule init
git submodule update

in a fresh clone, or just the second line to update the submodule.
