## Advanced: Local development using Docker
First, clone your repository locally.
Beautiful Jekyll is meant to be so simple to use that you can do it all within the browser. However, if you'd like to develop locally on your own machine, that's possible too if you're comfortable with command line. Follow these simple steps set that up with Docker:
1. Make sure you have [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) installed.
2. Clone your repository locally.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/<your_username>/<your_username>.github.io.git
```
Make sure you have Docker installed. https://www.docker.com/community-edition
### First-time setup
3. Run the following shell commands to build the docker image and start the container for the first time:
```bash
# 1. change directory
cd <folder>
# 2. Build the docker image
cd <repository_folder>
docker build -t beautiful-jekyll $PWD
# 3. Start the container for the first time
docker run -d -p 4000:4000 --name beautiful-jekyll -v $PWD:/srv/jekyll beautiful-jekyll
```
You can now view your website at http://localhost:4000/.
After the container is running, you can stop the server simply with the command
```bash
docker stop beautiful-jekyll
```
To start a container again (after you've already created it)
Now that Docker is set up, you do not need to run the above steps again. You can now view your website at http://localhost:4000/. You can start the container again in the future with:
```bash
docker start beautiful-jekyll
```
If you change `_config.yml`, you must restart the server for jekyll to rebuild the site.
And you can stop the server with:
```bash
docker restart beautiful-jekyll
docker stop beautiful-jekyll
```
Whenever you make any changes to `_config.yml`, you must stop and re-start the server new config settings to take effect.
Disclaimer: I personally am NOT using local development so I don't know much about running Jekyll locally. If you follow this route, please don't ask me questions because unfortunately I honestly won't be able to help!
Aditionally, if you choose to deploy Jekyll using a local ruby installation, you can tell Jekyll to automatically categorize your blog posts by tags. You just need to set `link-tags: true` in `_config.yml`. Jekyll will then generate a new page for each unique tag which lists all of the posts that belong to that tag.
