The new location of the BioJava homepage, accessible at either http://biojava.org or http://biojava.github.io.

The website uses Jekyll to generate static HTML content from Markdown. This is done automatically for the master branch of github.com/biojava/biojava.github.io, but can also be run locally for testing.

Compiling the site locally requires ruby. Install the following gems:

gem install github-pages

The github-pages plugin bundles all gems required for hosting, including the jekyll executable. You can immediately start a server for the content with

jekyll serve --incremental

Note that we aren't yet using bundler (recommended by github), but this would be a nice feature to configure.

All content was ported from the prior BioJava wiki following @peterjc 's instructions and scripts.

We use the HTML5 UP template.
