Installation

Prerequisites

• Docker installed on your system
• Git (to clone the repository)

Setup Steps

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/WatchOutNewsAgency/wona.github.com.git
   cd wona.github.com

2. Run with Docker

   docker run --rm -it \
     -v "${PWD}:/srv/jekyll" \
     -p 4000:4000 \
     jekyll/jekyll:4 \
     jekyll serve --host 0.0.0.0

   • If you might face error in dockerization use this instead: jekyll/jekyll:3
   • This command will start a Jekyll server, serving your site at 4000 port
   • If any other error, all the best debugging

3. Access the site

   • Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:4000
   • The site will automatically rebuild when you make changes to files

Docker Command Explanation

• --rm - Automatically remove the container when it exits
• -it - Interactive terminal mode
• -v "${PWD}:/srv/jekyll" - Mount current directory to Jekyll's working directory in container
• -p 4000:4000 - Map port 4000 from container to host
• jekyll/jekyll:4 - Use Jekyll Docker image version 4
• jekyll serve --host 0.0.0.0 - Start Jekyll development server accessible from all network interfaces

Development Notes

• Changes to _config.yml require a server restart
• New posts in _posts/ will be automatically detected
• CSS/SCSS changes will trigger automatic regeneration
• Press Ctrl+C to stop the development server

Troubleshooting

• If port 4000 is already in use, change -p 4000:4000 to -p 4001:4000 and access via http://localhost:4001
• On Windows, use PowerShell or Command Prompt
• Ensure Docker Desktop is running before executing the command
