Local Development

You don't need to set up a local development environment to write a blog post, but it's nice for previewing what your post looks like.

1. Install Jekyll locally in one fell swoop using gem install github-pages. This mirrors the plug-ins used by GitHub Pages on your local machine; including Jekyll, Sass, and more.
2. Create your own fork of this repository and git clone it down.
3. Run jekyll serve to serve the site locally, and go to http://0.0.0.0:4000 to view it.
