Quick start

Getting started

You need to:

  • install Java 11+
  • install Sbt or Mill (included in starter template)
  • clone the starter project

and you're ready!

Mill

Type ./mill site.hepek
Or ./mill -w site.hepek so that mill watches for file changes and runs hepek automatically.

Output will be in the site/hepek_output folder.

Sbt

Start up sbt console and type hepek.
Or ~hepek so that sbt watches for file changes and runs hepek automatically.

Output will be in the site/hepek_output folder.

Serving locally

Usually you'll want to use an HTTP server to develop a site locally.
First cd site/hepek_output and then use one of the options below.

jwebserver

If using Java 18+, use the jwebserver tool:

jwebserver

By default it will serve the site at http://localhost:8000

Browsersync

Install Browsersync and then:

browser-sync

Browsersync will automatically refresh page in browser when it gets changed!
By default it will serve the site at http://localhost:3000/
