+# EiffelWeb
+
+EiffelWeb is a framework to build web applications in Eiffel.
+
+To get started, check out [http://eiffelwebframework.github.io/EWF](http://eiffelwebframework.github.io/EWF)!
+
+## Documentation
+
+EiffelWeb 's documentation, included in this repo in the root directory, is built with [Jekyll](http://jekyllrb.com) and publicly hosted on GitHub Pages at [http://eiffelwebframework.github.io/EWF](http://eiffelwebframework.github.io/EWF). The docs may also be run locally.
+
+### Running documentation locally
+
+1. If necessary, [install Jekyll](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation) (requires v1.x).
+2. From the root `/EWF` directory, run `jekyll serve` in the command line.
+  - **Windows users:** run `chcp 65001` first to change the command prompt's character encoding ([code page](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_code_page)) to UTF-8 so Jekyll runs without errors.
+3. Open [http://localhost:9000](http://localhost:9000) in your browser, and voilà.
+
+Learn more about using Jekyll by reading their [documentation](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/home/).
+
+### Update the wiki pages
+1. git remote add -f ewf_wiki https://github.com/EiffelWebFramework/EWF.wiki.git
+2. git merge -s ours --no-commit --squash ewf_wiki/master
+3. git pull -X subtree=wiki ewf_wiki master
+4. then git commit if needed
