## Install dependencies
|
|
|
|
Install Ruby and other [prerequisites]({{ '/docs/installation/#requirements' | relative_url }}):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo apt-get install ruby-full build-essential zlib1g-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Avoid installing RubyGems packages (called gems) as the root user. Instead,
|
|
set up a gem installation directory for your user account. The following
|
|
commands will add environment variables to your `~/.bashrc` file to configure
|
|
the gem installation path:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
echo '# Install Ruby Gems to ~/gems' >> ~/.bashrc
|
|
echo 'export GEM_HOME="$HOME/gems"' >> ~/.bashrc
|
|
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/gems/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
|
|
source ~/.bashrc
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Finally, install Jekyll and Bundler:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
gem install jekyll bundler
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
That's it! You're ready to start using Jekyll.
