Set up

As this website is built with Jekyll, we will need to set up some Ruby tooling.

First, install RVM (Ruby Version Manager): https://rvm.io/rvm/install Then run the following commands:

$ rvm use 2.7.5 --install

# Set up Bundler, a Ruby package manager
# It downloads dependencies specified in a Gemfile
# but into a local path unlike gem 
$ gem install bundler
 # and if this fails, try installing libffi first (distro-specific):
 # sudo apt install libffi-dev

# Install dependencies such as Jekyll and its plugins:
$ bundle install

# Do a full build:
$ bundle exec jekyll build

Editing live

This is what you would do after initial installation:

$ bundle exec jekyll serve --watch
