Eigen zkVM Developer Documentation Site

Eigen Network builds the general-purpose zkVM with native privacy-preserving technology support on its modular proof system.

Dependencies

To work on this site you will need:

• Linux or macOS (Windows may work, but is unsupported).
• Ruby, version 2.3.1 or newer
• Bundler — If Ruby is already installed, but the bundle command doesn't work, just run gem install bundler:1.16.3 in a terminal.
• Pandoc

Build

Build site and slate API docs from the project's root directory:

./bin/build

Run

To view the site locally, execute the build command first, and then run a simple http server from the project's /build directory:

$ cd build

Python2:

$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080

Python3:

$ python -m http.server 8080

Ruby:

$ ruby -run -e httpd . -p 8080

Node.js:

$ npm install -g http-server
$ http-server -p 8080

The site will run at http://localhost:8080.

Updating API Docs

The API Documentation runs on the Open Source Slate Framework. To make an update, fork the repo and make the changes to the appropriate markdown in this file directory. To use livereload while working on the API docs, use middleman livereload like so:

$ cd ./0xeigenlabs.github.io/src/api-docs/
$ bundle install
$ bundle exec middleman server

When your PR is merged the new docs will be deployed to the live docs page.
