 ### Running documentation locally
 
 1. If necessary, [install Jekyll](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation) (requires v1.x).
+  - **Windows users:** read [this unofficial guide](https://github.com/juthilo/run-jekyll-on-windows/) to get Jekyll up and running without problems.
 2. From the root `/bootstrap` 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:9001> in your browser, and voilà.
