This is the source repository for the website of the optics measurements and corrections team (OMC) at CERN. The pages are deployed here.
This is a method adapted to making small changes, most likely to a single page. Go to the current version of the site here, navigate to a page you wish to modify and click the page's modification link (the little pen at the top right). You will be taken to the Github GUI to make your changes, which you can later commit.
For bigger changes, local development is recommended.

You can run a local server by running python -m mkdocs serve from the top-level directory, and see the site rendered locally in your browser at localhost:8000.
The rendered website will automatically reload upon changes to any file located in the docs directory.
Commit your changes to this repository, and open a pull request to get them approved once they are ready.
The static pages are built with Mkdocs, the documentation of which can be found here.
The site's look and functionality relies on the Material Mkdocs Theme.
