flipdot.github.io

This is a jekyll site made for testing github-md-editor. This is not our main website, for that go to flipdot.org!

Building

Install ruby and bundler. Then run

bundle install

Then run

bundle exec jekyll serve

and you will have a web server on localhost:4000 that serves the site.

Deploying

The build step above puts the page contents into a directory called _site. You can also just build the page, without running jekyll's default webserver:

bundle exec jekyll build

Once the page generation is done, just upload the contents of the _site directory to a webserver.

Extensionless page links

Wikis look much nicer with page paths like /my/page instead of /my/page.html or /my/page/. To set this up in nginx, use the following directive:

try_files $uri $uri/ =404;

In apache, the following should work (but I did not test it):

DirectorySlash Off
