⁠Notes

⁠Watching files

Running watch tasks in Grunt isn't recommended in non-Linux environments as file performance is slow and CPU usage runs extremely high in this scenario. See https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/77⁠

⁠Jekyll/ruby environments

While this container ships with a globally installed Jekyll package, it's recommended you work off a project Gemfile so that the version of Jekyll and its plugins are defined in your project's source code. To do that, you can install Jekyll this way using the task runner:

docker run --rm -it -v "$(pwd)":/app -v "$(pwd)/vendor/bundle":/usr/local/bundle evanshunt/taskrunner bundle install jekyll

Please note the additional directory mounting: -v "$(pwd)/vendor/bundle":/usr/local/bundle. This mounting ensures any Gems, such as Jekyll, installed to your project, persist in your container by being saved to your local disk in a /vendor/bundle directory in your project. Adding /vendor/bundle to your .gitignore is strongly recommended.
