Development

The GitHub buttons source code is split across three files in src/—the HTML, CSS, and JS—and compiled with Gulp. The github-btn.hml file contains the button markup and includes the external CSS and JS. Those includes are inlined and the overall page minified with Gulp.

To build the files, just run Gulp:

$ gulp

Lastly, the https://ghbtns.com site is built with Jekyll (requires Ruby and more). Install Jekyll and run a local server to view your changes:

$ jekyll serve --watch
