This repository contains the www.macosforge.org web site.

Testing changes locally

You should test any changes to the web site locally before pushing.

In the Terminal, cd to the root directory of your clone.

Install Ruby, bundler, and the GitHub Pages gems

Make sure you have Ruby 2.0.0 or greater:

ruby --version

Install the bundler gem:

gem install bundler

Install the bundle of gems used by GitHub Pages:

bundle install

If it's been awhile since you installed the bundle, update it:

bundle update

Test the web site

Start a local web server by running:

bundle exec jekyll serve --baseurl ''

Now you can access http://127.0.0.1:4000 in your web browser to see the web site. When you make changes to your clone, your local site will automatically update. When done testing, press Ctrl + C to stop the local web server.

Changes to _config.yml are not automatically reflected. If you change _config.yml, stop and start the local web server to see those changes take effect.
