   docker-compose build
   

2. Run the built image

   docker-compose up

3. Verify that the website is working

   Open your web browser and type http://localhost:8888 in the navigation bar. This opens a local instance of the website, you can now make changes in the documentation and those changes will immediately show up in the browser after you save.

Running Natively

• python3
• hugo v0.107.0 (EXTENDED VERSION)
• pip
• git 1.8.5 or later
• npm v6.14.5
• node v14.3.0
• netlify cli

   npm install

3. Install the dependencies for the sync script

   python3 -m venv .venv
   source .venv/bin/activate    
   pip3 install -r requirements.txt
   

4. Run the sync script

   ./sync/sync.py

5. Serve the website locally

   netlify dev

6. Verify that the website is working

   Open your web browser and type http://localhost:8888 in the navigation bar. This opens a local instance of the website, you can now make changes in the documentation and those changes will immediately show up in the browser after you save.
