Data Flow
- Ansible role information is maintained in the
index.mdfile - Jekyll processes the content using the Hacker theme
- GitHub Actions builds the site automatically
- The static site is served via GitHub Pages
Current Issues
- Ruby 4.0.0 compatibility issues with nokogumbo gem
- Outdated Travis CI configuration (should migrate to GitHub Actions)
- Some links may be outdated after role updates
- Potential performance improvements needed
Dependencies
- jekyll (>= 3.5, < 5.0)
- jekyll-seo-tag (~> 2.0)
- html-proofer (~> 3.0)
- rubocop-github (~> 0.16)

Testing
The site uses html-proofer to validate HTML links and structure during the build process. GitHub Actions runs these checks on each push to ensure the site remains functional.
