    +This README gives an overview of how to build and contribute to the documentation of Apache DistributedLog.
    +
    +The documentation is included with the source of Apache DistributedLog in order to ensure that you always
    +have docs corresponding to your checked out version. The online documentation at
    +http://distributedlog.incubator.apache.org/docs/latest is also generated from the files found at master branch.
    +
    +# Requirements
    +
    +The dependencies are declared in the Gemfile in this directory. We use [reStructuredText](http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html)
    +to write and [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/) and [jekyll-rst](https://github.com/xdissent/jekyll-rst) to translate the documentation to static HTML.
    +You can use Ruby's Bundler Gem to install all the depenencies for building the documentation:
    +
    +    gem install bundler
    +    bundle install
    +
    +And use [pip](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip) to install docutils and pygments
    +
    +    pip install docutils pygments
    +
    +# Build
    +
    +## Live developement
    +
    +While you are working with the documentation, you can test and develop live. Run the following in the root folder of the `docs`:
    +
    +    $ bundle exec jekyll serve
    +
    +Jekyll will start a webserver on port `4000`. As you make changes to the content, Jekyll will rebuild it automatically.
    +This is helpful if you want to see how your changes will render in realtime.
    +
    +## Generating the static website
    +
    +Once you are done with your changes, you need to compile the static content for the website.
