This directory contains the source of the official RDF4J project website at https://rdf4j.org/, including all technical documentation.

The RDF4J project website is generated using the Hugo static website generator, and uses the Eclipse Foundation Solstice Theme.

The solstice theme is included as a git submodule. To check out a local copy, run

git submodule update --init --recursive

You should only need to do this once after cloning the rdf4j repository.

Most website content can be found in the content/ directory, as (Goldmark) Markdown files. We allow inclusion of raw html as well, but please use this sparingly: we prefer use of markdown to make future maintenance as easy as possible.

To generate a site locally for easy editing/debugging, simply execute

hugo server --disableFastRender

A local copy of the website will be accessible on https://localhost:1313/. You can edit the content using your text editor of choice, the hugo server will automatically re-render the pages you edit as you go.
