Want to run your own copy of this jekyll site? No problem. You'll need a few things:
- Ruby, to install Jekyll
- Jekyll, to build and run the website
- Git, to clone this repository
- A Browser, to view the website of course!
First things first, we need to install Jekyll. We assume that you have Git and Ruby installed. If you don't, please visit the links above to install them. We also assume you're using a Unix-based system; if you aren't, follow jekyll's alternatives instruction page.
Type in your command line:
gem install jekyll
After Jekyll completes its setup, clone the git repository:
git clone https://github.com/FoodSpan/foodspan-website.git
Then, cd into the repository:
cd foodspan-website
Inside the repository, all you'll need to do is "serve" the site. Type the following into your command line:
jekyll serve
After that, you should get a response that looks something like this:
jekyll serve

And voila! Everything should work for you. If something isn't, please let me know on our issues tracker.
