Local Development

To run this site locally:

1. Clone this repository
2. Important: You must serve the files through a local web server rather than opening them directly as files. This is because the site uses fetch requests to load the markdown files, which don't work with the file:// protocol due to browser security restrictions.

You can use one of these methods to run a local server:

Using Python (easiest)

# If you have Python installed:
# Navigate to the project directory, then run:
python -m http.server
# Then open your browser to: http://localhost:8000

Using Node.js

# If you have Node.js installed:
# Navigate to the project directory, then run:
npx serve
# Then open your browser to the URL shown in the terminal

Using PHP

# If you have PHP installed:
# Navigate to the project directory, then run:
php -S localhost:8000
# Then open your browser to: http://localhost:8000
