Jekyll is a static site generator. It takes text written in your favorite markup language and uses layouts to create a static website.

Quickstart

Install the jekyll and bundler gems:

gem install bundler jekyll

To install gems in your Gemfile using Bundler, run the following in the directory that has the Gemfile:

bundle install
bundle exec jekyll serve

Pass the --livereload option to serve to automatically refresh the page with each change you make to the source files:

bundle exec jekyll serve --livereload

You have already activated i18n 1.10.0, but your Gemfile requires i18n 0.9.5. Prepending bundle exec to your command may solve this.

$ ruby -S gem list --local | grep i18n
i18n (1.10.0, 0.9.5)

$ bundle exec jekyll serve

If you are using Ruby version 3.0.0 or higher, step 5 may fail. You may fix it by adding webrick to your dependencies:

bundle add webrick
bundle exec jekyll serve
