Create a Docusaurus Site · Magnus Hammar

This is a condensed version of Installation · Docusaurus & Creating your site done on my Windows machine with WSL build environment.

Setting up WSL (optional)

I'm assuming a fresh installation of Ubuntu 16.04 on Windows 10 Version 1803

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_8.x | sudo -E bash -

curl -sS https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -

echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
# Install Nodejs and yarn
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y nodejs yarn
