## Run the website from Linux

Run the command from the cloned website folder.

`bundle exec jekyll serve --livereload --unpublished --incremental`

## Run the website from Windows (WSL2)

It is possible to run Ruby natively in Windows but this is difficult to do. So in our example we just run it at WSL and bypass all those problems.

Run the command from the cloned website folder.

`bundle exec jekyll serve --force_polling --livereload --unpublished`
