Jekyll
This site is built for Jekyll. If you have Jekyll
and npm installed, you can run npm run serve to have Jekyll watch the
working directory for changes and compile the templates (etc) incrementally.
Once run, you can browse the site at http://localhost:4000/2019/did-wg/
(the extra path information is required to match the w3.org hosting location).
