Clone this repository: `git clone https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org` 2. Install [Python 3.6+](https://www.python.org/downloads/) 3. Install [mkdocs-material](https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/getting-started/): `pip install mkdocs-material` 4. Serve the site locally: `mkdocs serve` - The site will be available at `http://localhost:8000/`. Your local site will appear slightly different, because the production version of the website uses a private/custom build of mkdocs-material with additional features. Team members with access to [mkdocs-material-insiders](https://github.com/privacyguides/mkdocs-material-insiders) should instead: 1. Clone this repository and submodules: `git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org` 2. Install [Python 3.6+](https://www.python.org/downloads/) 3. Install **pipenv**: `pip install pipenv` 4. Start a pipenv shell: `pipenv shell` 5. Install dependencies: `pipenv install --dev` 6. Serve the site locally: `mkdocs serve --config-file mkdocs.production.yml` - The site will be available at `http://localhost:8000` - You can build the site locally with `mkdocs build --config-file mkdocs.production.yml` - This version of the site should be identical to the live, production version
