Use and install Jekyll

To create a static website for our documentation, I used Jekyll, built with Ruby and RubyGems.

Jekyll Chirpy

• The Jekyll theme is jekyll-theme-chirpy
• This site was built using the following template: chirpy-starter
• You’ll find documentation and examples for using and developing with this theme here: Jekyll Chirpy Examples

See the theme documentation.

Install Ruby and Jekyll

To install Runby and RubyGems, you can follow the installation guide for your platform: Jekyll - Installation

For Windows:

1. Download RubyInstaller Ruby+Devkit
2. Run the installer and install Ruby
3. In the last step, run ridk install
   
4. Install the MSYS2 and MINGW development toolchain option
   
5. Close the terminal once successfully completed
   

6. Open a new terminal and verify the installation:

    ruby -v
    gem -v
   

   The installed tools should return the installed version.

7. Open a new terminal and run this command to install Jekyll and Bundler

    gem install jekyll bundler
   

   Once the installation is complete, you’ll be ready to launch Jekyll on your computer.
