This is a draft website for The Carpentries. It is being deprecated in favor of this forthcoming Hugo theme. This repo does not contain current or accurate information about The Carpentries.

Setup

The website uses Jekyll, a static website generator written in Ruby. You need to have Version 2.7.1 or higher of Ruby and the package manager Bundler. (The package manager is used to make sure you use exactly the same versions of the Ruby Gems as we do.) After checking out the repository, please run:

$ bundle install

to install Jekyll and the software it depends on. You may consult Using Jekyll with Pages for further instructions.

Previewing

Please do not use jekyll build or jekyll serve directly to build or view the website. Instead, you should use the following commands:

• make or make commands: list available commands.
• make serve: build files locally and run a server at http://0.0.0.0:4000/ for viewing. This is the best way to preview the site.
• make clean removes the _site directory and any Emacs editor backup files littering the source directories.
