Building the site using Jekyll

If you're familiar with Jekyll it can make running the demos locally or deploying them to a remote server much easier. It's actually how this repo is built and how the demo app is deployed.

# Clone the repo and cd into the repo directory.
git clone git@github.com:mchall/analytics-real-time.git
cd analytics-real-time

# Run the site locally using Jekyll
jekyll serve

The jekyll serve command will build all the files and load up a server on your local machine. Then you can go to http://localhost:4000 and everything should work fine. If you run jekyll serve -w it will also watch for changes to your source files and rebuild the site on the fly. This makes it easy to change a few things and see the results immediately.

If you need to change any of the configuration settings (like your client ID) you can set them in the _config.yml file and rerun the jekyll serve command.
