apache/activemq-website

This repository contains the source files for the Apache ActiveMQ website, which lives at activemq.apache.org. It doesn't contain the ActiveMQ software itself, just the pages, documentation, and other content that make up the public-facing site for the project. Think of it as the manuscript and blueprint for a website, not the product the website describes. When someone edits the content here and submits those changes, an automated system kicks in. It uses a tool called Jekyll to turn the source files into finished web pages. That generated output is then automatically published to the live site. So the workflow is straightforward: you edit the source content, a build process converts it into HTML, and the result goes live within a few minutes. Contributors can also build and preview the site on their own computer before submitting changes, so they can verify everything looks right. The people who would use this repository are contributors to the Apache ActiveMQ project, writers, developers, or maintainers who want to update documentation, fix a typo, add release notes, or restructure how information is presented on the site. For example, if a new version of ActiveMQ is released and the documentation needs to reflect that, someone would edit the files here, preview them locally, and open a pull request for review. Approved changes go live automatically. There's a practical detail worth noting: because the full site includes a lot of heavy content like API documentation and older release notes, there's a helper script that lets contributors build a smaller subset of the site locally. This makes editing and previewing much faster when you're only working on a specific section and don't need the entire site regenerated every time you save a change.
