About

This repository contains the source code of al-quran.reflectslight.io - a static website for reading (and listening to) The Noble Quran. After the website is built, the build directory consists of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and other static assets that can be hosted by a web server such as nginx, apache, etc.

Requirements

The following languages and tools have to be installed to build the website from source:

• Ruby 3.1 (or later)
• NodeJS v18.15 (or later)
• tidy-html5

Please note that the audio files are hosted by https://al-quran.reflectslight.io, and due to their overall size they are only files not kept in this repository.

Development

# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/ReflectsLight/al-quran.git
cd al-quran

# Setup build environment
bin/setup

# List all tasks
rake -T

# Build website
rake nanoc:build

# Start web server
rake server

Configuration

If you plan to host the website on your own domain you will probably want to update nanoc.yaml first. Largely for SEO reasons certain links will reference the hostname al-quran.reflectslight.io. Those links can be updated to your own domain by changing the server.hostname field in nanoc.yaml.
