A) Install a version of Ruby (if you have a 64 bit machine make sure you download the x64 one!)
https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/installation/
B) Install a devkit (read the side notes they put- download the right one!) : http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads/
C) Configuring your DevKit/binding it to your path:
From (https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/wiki/Development-Kit):
" Quick start Download it, run it to extract it somewhere (permanent). Then (with the "Command Prompt with Ruby", you installed this in A): cd to it, run ruby dk.rb init and ruby dk.rb install to bind it to ruby installations in your path."
D) Putting everything together, with the Command Prompt with Ruby do...
- If you don't already have it, install bundler
gem install bundler
- In the project root, run
bundle install
to get dependencies for Jekyll - Start the development server with
bundle exec jekyll serve
