ReadingBat Quickstart

  • Create an account on Gitpod.io

  • Go to the ReadingBat Template repo and click on the button to clone the repo and create your own ReadingBat content.

  • Open your browser to the newly created repo.

  • Create a Gitpod.io workspace by prefixing the GitHub URL with gitpod.io/# and hitting return. (Gitpod provides a browser extension for Chrome that makes this step even easier.

  • Once the Gitpod.io workspace has loaded, type make run in the shell window to start your ReadingBat server.

  • Once the server is running, you will see a window notifying you that "A service is available on port 8080." Click on the Open Browser button.

  • You can now edit the content as you wish and push it to GitHub.

  • See Running a Server for development mode options.
