Infectious Diseases Toolkit
The website is build on GitHub using Jekyll, a simple, static site generator based on ruby. When you have a local copy cloned onto your computer, it is possible to generate the website based on this repo. This makes it possible to preview changes live, every time you save a file from within the GitHub infectious-diseases-toolkit repo. Follow these steps to deploy the website based on your local clone (copy) of the jekyll-bootstrap-theme repo:
Make sure you have cloned the infectious-diseases-toolkit repo:
git clone git@github.com:elixir-europe/infectious-diseases-toolkit.git
cd infectious-diseases-toolkit
To run the website locally, you can either use Docker or use Jekyll directly after installing various dependencies.
Run using Docker
If not already installed on your machine, install Docker. From the root of the infectious-diseases-toolkit directory, run:

This will start the docker container and serve the website locally.
