GH Pages Blog powered by Jekyll

Development

You will need Docker installed to run the devcontainer for local editing.

Hit Ctrl-Shift-P to open the command pallet and select Dev Containers: Reopen in Container.

The first time you do this it will need to build the container so will take a minute, but subsequently it should open almost immediately.

After starting the container, run

bundle exec jekyll serve --livereload

You can visit the running site at http://127.0.0.1:4000/. Any changes to the site files should cause a rebuild / browser refresh.

Edits to blog posts don't trigger this, so just re-save a root file to trigger the rebuild.

To exit the container, hit Ctrl-Shift-P again and select Dev Containers: Reopen Folder Locally.

Deployment

Pushing to main will publish the site.
