This is the source of the alt website, which is generated using Github Pages and Jekyll.

The source utilizes the same docs folder as the rest of the project, but converts the links from their usable format on github, to work with the website.

You must first install the Ruby dependencies specified in the Gemfile with bundler, bundle install --path .bundle

This project uses Rake to run commands to build/deploy the Ruby based Jekyll site.

To view all the Rake commands available in the Rakefile run bundle exec rake -T.

• Generate the Jekyll website (gets written to _site/) with bundle exec rake build.
• Watch for changes and serve at localhost:4000/alt/ with bundle exec rake watch or just bundle exec rake (because it is the default task).

Changes on the website are made directly to the master branch like any other alt changes, but they will not be deployed to the site automatically. The maintainers will use the rake deploy task which will commit the latest site changes to the gh-pages branch, where github will handle propagating these so they are viewable online.
