+# C++ tips
+
+Thoughs on C++ and life.
+Hosted on [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com) at https://egor-tensin.github.io/cpp_tips/.
+
+## Installation
+
+[Jekyll](http://jekyllrb.com/) is used to build a set of static HTML pages from a collection of templates and resources.
+Jekyll doesn't support Windows, however at the moment of writing one can get it to work using the excellent tutorial at http://jekyll-windows.juthilo.com/.
+
+I'm using [Bundler](http://bundler.io/) to set up a development environment.
+After the `bundler` gem is installed, project dependencies can be installed by running
+
+    bundle install
+
+in the project's root directory.
+
+## Development
+
+To run a local web server, run
+
+    bundle exec jekyll serve --baseurl '' --watch --drafts
+
+from the project's root directory.
+You can then review your changes at http://localhost:4000/.
+
+To exclude the comments section, include the `_config-exclude-comments.yml` configuration file using
+
+    bundle exec jekyll serve --baseurl '' --watch --drafts --config _config.yml,_config-exclude-comments.yml
+
+Please note that the support for `--watch`ing for modification on Windows is kind of iffy at the moment of writing.
+One possible workaround is to add `--force_polling` to `jekyll`s options:
+
+    bundle exec jekyll serve --baseurl '' --watch --force_polling --drafts --config _config.yml,_config-exclude-comments.yml
+
+It might still not work though, so you might end up having to re-run `jekyll` manually.
+For details, refer to http://jekyll-windows.juthilo.com/4-wdm-gem/.
+
+I'm also using the `rouge` gem for syntax highlighting during development instead of [Pygments](http://pygments.org/).
+The reason for this was that Pygments required Python 2 to be installed, while I'm trying to switch to Python 3 completely.
+The downside is that at the moment of writing GitHub Pages only supported Pygments, so I had to include a separate configuration file `_config-rouge.yml` during development.
+
+To sum up, on Linux use
+
+    bundle exec jekyll serve \
+        --baseurl '' \
+        --watch \
+        --drafts \
+        --config _config.yml,_config-exclude-comments.yml,_config-rouge.yml
+
+and on Windows (hoping for the best) use
+
+    bundle exec jekyll serve ^
+        --baseurl '' ^
+        --watch --force_polling ^
+        --drafts ^
+        --config _config.yml,_config-exclude-comments.yml,_config-rouge.yml
+
+to run a local web server.
