The readme has the steps needed to work on the website.

You don't need to know a lot about the rigging to edit the site as it is automated via grunt.


It uses docpad to generate the static site. It has decent (but extensive) docs.

You can starts here: http://docpad.org/docs/overview

Note most content is in markdown with some pre-proccessor steps. I went with the basic eco templates. Notice how the extensions of the files determines the pre-processors.


The layout is done with http://semantic-ui.com/ because it looked fun, capable and wasn't bootstrap (to escape that default bootstrap look).

Font is Segoe from typescriptlang to make it look TypeScriptish.


If you want to work on the technical bit or site structure then let's coordinate in this thread so we don't bork work.

If you have a local checkout then pull the devDependencies.

I added marked as separate dependency, and because of a bug in grunt v0.4.4 I had to update grunt to v0.4.5
