$ bundle exec jekyll serve
~~~
## Editing
Malt is already optimised for updating pages, company details and footer elements in CloudCannon.
## SEO Tag
This site uses the [jekyll-seo-tag](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll-seo-tag) plugin. You should at least set a title in front matter on each page. Have a look at the [project page](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll-seo-tag) for more options.

2. Run your site in production `JEKYLL_ENV=production` (the default for CloudCannon and GitHub Pages).
## EventBrite
