web.dev

web.dev is the ultimate resource for developers of all backgrounds to learn, create, and solve on the web. It's meant to not only educate developers, but help them apply what they've learned to any site they work on, be it personal or business.

Note: this repo contains the written content for web.dev. The client-side JS and server are not yet open source but we hope to share them soon! 🙇‍♂️

Authoring content ✍️

Before you start writing take a moment to look over the web.dev handbook and familiarize yourself with the process. When you're ready, follow the steps in the Quickstart to create your content proposal.

Building the site 🏗

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/GoogleChrome/web.dev.git

Install dependencies

npm ci

Start a local server to preview the site

npm run dev

Open http://localhost:8080/ to see the site locally. Changes to assets will rebuild the site. Refresh to see your changes.

👉 The preview server allows you to see how the content will look on the production site, but it's not a true staging server. For example, features like search and JS components may not work or be entirely broken on the local preview.

Staging 🕺

When you send in a pull request it will be automatically staged for you. Keep an eye out for the netlify bot to comment on the pull request with your unique URL.

Debugging 🐛

If you need to debug the site's build process:

1. Add a debugger statement to .eleventy.js
2. Run npm run debug
3. Go to chrome://inspect to attach to the running process.
