Building locally

1. Open Terminal.

2. Navigate to the publishing source for your site. For more information, see "Configuring a publishing source for your GitHub Pages site."

3. Run bundle install.

4. Run your Jekyll site locally.

   $ bundle exec jekyll serve

   Configuration file: /Users/octocat/my-site/_config.yml Source: /Users/octocat/my-site Destination: /Users/octocat/my-site/_site Incremental build: disabled.

Note: If you've installed Ruby 3.0 or later (which you may have if you installed the default version via Homebrew), you might get an error at this step. That's because these versions of Ruby no longer come with webrick installed.

To fix the error, try running bundle add webrick, then re-running bundle exec jekyll serve.
