Nengo website

This repository contains code and sources files to generate the Nengo website. It's generated with the Jekyll static website generator.

Questions and comments about the content on this website can be posted on the Nengo forum.

Github will build this website on each push. If you want to build the site locally, you will need a Ruby environment.

Installation

If you want to build the site just as Github builds it, you can install the Github pages RubyGem. From your cloned repository directory, do

gem install bundler
bundle install

Alternatively, to install these requirements outside of system directories, do

gem install --user-install bundler
bundle install --path ~/.bundles

This will install bundler and the Github pages bundle to your user directory. If you haven't already, you may have to add the user Gems folder to your $PATH. To do this for the current session, do

export PATH=$HOME/.gem/ruby/<version>/bin:$PATH

where <version> is the version of Ruby you're using. To have this take effect permanently, add this line to your .profile, .bashrc, or whatever your particular shell uses for configuration.

If you want to serve the page dynamically, then you also have to install NodeJS. On Debian and Debian-derivatives, this can be done with sudo apt-get install nodejs. For more details and install instructions on other platforms, see the NodeJS install guilde.

When Github pages updates, run

bundle update

To build the site, run

bundle exec jekyll build

The site will be generated in _site.

If you would like to serve the site locally, run

bundle exec jekyll serve

The site will now be served at http://localhost:4000.

Props

The site was redesigned in 2019 by a team at Fusionbox who were lovely to work with.
