Welcome to the repository for the DDD East Midlands Blog!

After much persuasion from the community, we have decided to move away from Medium and host our blogs using Jekyll.

We chose Jekyll as it is a framework we, the organisers, are familiar with and it allows posts to be submitted in markdown, which we hope will still keep the barrier to entry low.

We have some handy contribution guidelines to help provide some guidance.

Please read through the Code Of Conduct to make sure your submissions abide to it.

• First make sure you meet all the pre-requisites for running a Jekyll project outlined on their Quickstart page
• jekyll build will build the project
• jekyll serve will serve the project, and it will be accessible at localhost:4000.

Install docker following the official steps here and then run:

• docker-compose up
• docker will run jekyll serve so you can modify files and the site will rebuild in docker.
• The site will be accessible at localhost:4000.
