-**Special Note:** Credit needs to be given to user [Achraf JEDAY](https://stackoverflow.com/users/4974784/achraf-jeday) for putting these instructions together on Stack Overflow (although his comments were targeting an older version of Ruby). This post is more for my own personal notes than anything else.
-
-I find myself constantly running into small issues when trying to setup existing Jekyll projects on new Linux systems. I *could* use something like Docker, but that just seems so beefy and slow to me. So here is a step-by-step way (and foolproof from my own testing) to get Jekyll running smoothly in no time!
-
-## Figuring out Ruby First
-
-The first item of business is removing the default Ruby that ships with most Linux distros:
-
-
- sudo apt-get remove ruby
-
-
-Then we check for updates and install everything we need:
-
-
- sudo apt update
- sudo apt install git curl libssl-dev libreadline-dev zlib1g-dev autoconf bison build-essential libyaml-dev libreadline-dev libncurses5-dev libffi-dev libgdbm-dev
-
-
-Now we can install `rbenv` and `ruby-build`:
-
-
- curl -sL https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv-installer/raw/main/bin/rbenv-installer | bash -
-
-
-After both of those install, you will want to add those to your system **PATH**:
-
-### Bash
-
-
- echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
- echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.bashrc
- source ~/.bashrc
-
-
-### ZSH
-
-
- echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
- echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.zshrc
- source ~/.zshrc
-
-
-With that complete, we can now install the version of Ruby we wish to use and set it globally (at this time of writing it is `3.1.2`):
-
-
- rbenv install 3.1.2
- rbenv global 3.1.2
-
-
-And `rehash` so our changes take:
-
-
- rbenv rehash
-
-
-Now you should see the properly set Ruby version when you run the following:
-
-
- ruby -v
-
-
-## Getting Ruby Gems
-
-In case you don't have it installed already, be sure to grab `rubygems`:
-
-
- sudo apt install rubygems
-
-
-## Running Jekyll
-
-We are almost done! Navigate to your Jekyll project's directory and run:
-
-
- gem install jekyll bundler
- bundle install
-
-
-That's it! Now if you run `bundle exec jekyll serve` you'll find your Jekyll project running locally! Hopefully this helps others when needing to port any Jekyll projects over to a new Linux system. I know it will save me time!
-
-## Alpine Linux on Wayland
-
-Save yourself a world of trouble: just use `docker`. The docker image below (jekyll-serve) works out-of-the-box:
-
-[https://github.com/BretFisher/jekyll-serve](https://github.com/BretFisher/jekyll-serve)
-
-Then run the following inside your project:
-
-
- docker run -p 4000:4000 -v $(pwd):/site bretfisher/jekyll-serve
-
