Skohub Blog

This project is the source for the new skohub blog. This project was created with the gatsby template gatsby-starter-blog.

Adding a new blog post

We have a few conventions for adding a new blog post: Each post has an own folder under content/blog starting with the date of the blog post (YYYY-MM-DD). In this folder we add all images used in the blog post. The blog post itself is written as a markdown file named index.md so we'll get nice urls.

Installation

Gatsby is build with Node.js.

Install Node.js

Windows

Download and install the latest Node.js version from the official Node.js website.

Unix

Install the lastest nvm version.

Set default Node.js version. When nvm is installed, it does not default to a particular node version. You’ll need to install the version you want and give nvm instructions to use it. See here to automatically switch to the correct node version (not necessary, but handy).

nvm install 18
nvm use 18

Start developing

The site runs with:

cd skohub-blog
npm install
npm run develop

Or make use of Docker:

docker compose up

The site is now running at http://localhost:8000!

Build

To create a production build and output the built static files into the public directory, run:

cd skohub-blog
npm install
npm run build

If you want to view the production build locally, run:

npm run serve

Once this starts, you can view your site at http://localhost:9000.
