The command "middleman server -p "${port}"" is used to start the Middleman server with a specific port.
Here's a breakdown of each component:
-
"middleman" is a static site generator that helps in building static websites. It provides functions for managing assets, layouts, and content, making it easier to create and maintain websites.
-
"server" is a command or subcommand provided by Middleman that starts a local web server to preview the site.
-
"-p" is an option flag that specifies the port for the server to listen on.
-
"${port}" is a placeholder or variable that represents the desired port number. It will be replaced with an actual port number when the command is run.
By using this command and assigning a value to the "port" variable, you can start the Middleman server on a specific port of your choice. For example, if you set the value of "${port}" to 3000, the server will be accessible at "http://localhost:3000".
