Hosting the site locally

You can start by running the standard jekyll commands.

bundle install
bundle exec jekyll serve

However, as you'll notice this only builds the dev docs. The final site actually consists of three separate jekyll projects, with one set of interwoven source files, the developer docs being the default. You can build the others by appending an extra config file:

bundle exec jekyll serve --config _config.yml,_config_willow2.yml
bundle exec jekyll serve --config _config.yml,_config_oak.yml

Alternatively, _jekyll.py provides simpler aliases for this, _jekyll.py build willow.

To build and merge the three sites, run _jekyll.py merge. This creates a new _merged_site dir.

You can then use your favourite http server to host this merged directory - e.g. python -m http.server -d _merged_site 4000, ruby -run -e httpd -- _merged_site -p 4000
