Local development

Check if you have all requirments for local environment, install Jekyll server gem. Install GitHub pages

	gem install github-pages

Run this command from project root folder:

    jekyll serve -w

Site will be available at http://127.0.0.1:4000/zeppelin/ or http://localhost:4000/zeppelin/ (on Windows)

NOTE: in this mode all changes to html and data files will be automatically regenerated, but after changing _config.yml you have to restart server.

Sass(Compass) support

Install the latest version of Compass. Ruby uses Gems to manage its various packages of code like Sass. In your open terminal window type:

	gem install compass --pre

Then for combining media queries you can use Sass::MediaQueryCombiner plugin. Install with command

	gem install sass-media_query_combiner

And for prefixing css3 properties use Autoprefixer

	gem install autoprefixer-rails

Note: Also you need to install Node.js

To watch changes of .sass files and compile it to the .css on a fly change property safe: true to safe: false in _config.yml. Note: It works only on local machine, because GitHub runs Jekyll in --save mode

Learn more about Sass development from documentation.
