• Run Jekyll to locally test
  • On your first time running Jekyll run: bundle install to get Ruby dependencies
  • bundle exec jekyll serve
  • Browse to http://127.0.0.1:4000/
• Once happy with your post, commit the changes
  • git add <blog_file> i.e. git add _posts/2013-04-15-Space-Apps-London.md
  • git commit -m "Added post about Hacksoc storming SpaceApps London"
  • This should make them go live immediately if you commit directly to the repo
    • (Or if you submit a pull request - changes should go live after the pull request is accepted!)
• If problems occur, look at the output and build status on Travis CI, as well as the output from the local Jekyll server
  • GitHub may send your email or info@hacksocnotts.co.uk with failure information (although it's not always very helpful)
  • Ask @jay-to-the-dee (Dilks) or @jamietanna if you're still stuck :)
