http://arunrocks.com - Arun Ravindran's online presence

The entire site has been written in a clean and easy to read markup leveraging new semantic
HTML5 tags and CSS3. There is minimal dependence on the site design (Moonlight theme) allowing
for any future redesigns. The blog posts have been written in Markdown. Most blogs posts
contain atleast one image having a width of upto 500px.

A lot of emphasis has been given to optimise the website loading time. Almost all Javascripts
would be asynchronously loaded. There are various optimisations in the `.htaccess` file.

Install
-------

* Clone the github repository
* Check out the `master` branch

Prerequisites
-------------

* Ruby (works with 1.8)
* Speed-up related posts in GSL:

```bash
sudo apt-get install gsl-bin libgsl0-dev
sudo gem install gsl classifier
```

Rakefile
-------------

The entire website (including related posts) is created with a Rakefile. Some of the useful rake commands are:

* `rake` builds the website.
* `rake deploy:prod` pushes the compiled version to server.
* `rake write["Title"]` makes a new blog post using `Title` and the current date.
