Dahlia Demo

Demo webpage for the Dahlia Programming language.

Prerequisites

1. Install Hugo (= 0.65.1)
2. (Optional for local builds) Install entr.
3. Run make get-dahlia to grab the Dahlia JS compiler.
4. Run make. Thsi will install the dependencies for custom-js/ and generate the website under the public/ folder.

Local builds

There are two components to the webiste, the static webpage and the custom JavaScript (which contains all the examples).

1. Run the following command to automatically rebuild the JavaScript dependencies whenever a file in custom-js/ is changed:

   cd custom-js && find *.js | entr -c yarn build
   

2. Run hugo server -w in the repository root. This will serve the webpage to localhost:1313/dahlia.

Adding new exampls

All the examples live in custom-js/examples.js. Add a new example by adding a new object in the same style as the existing examples.

If running a local build, the file should be automatically rebuilt and the example should up in the list. If it doesn't show up, check the console for any errors. It's likely that the example was malformed or a the script failed.
