2. Getting the code onto your system

This is quite simple now that you have Jekyll and the other software installed. Again you will be using Terminal. I generally run my projects from my documents folder in a project called githubProjects (so paste these steps):

cd 
cd Documents
mkdir githubProjects
cd githubProjects

You now have your folder ready to get the code to run the site. So paste this command:

git clone https://github.com/FitzwilliamMuseum/egyptiancoffins

This will run and copy the contents to your machine in the folder Documents/githubProjects/egyptiancoffins

Now change into this folder:

cd egyptiancoffins

Several extra bits of software may need to be installed on your mac, so follow these commands:

gem install jekyll-feed
gem install jemoji
gem install jekyll-sitemap
gem install jekyll-seo-tag
gem install jekyll-mentions

This should all install okay, if not again ask @portableant

Now you can get the site running!

Run this command:

jekyll serve 

This will run and you will see this window and if it runs you will get a list of things happening and at the bottom two lines to pay attention to:

Server address: http://127.0.0.1:4000/
Server running... press ctrl-c to stop.

The top line tells you where to access the site on your laptop, so go to http://127.0.0.1:4000/

To stop the server running, you use terminal and in the window you have running, press ctrl and c together and it will take you back to the command line. Simple.
