Building

Essentially, for now, you "can't". As it stands, FilterLists is only pseudo-open-sourced, built on WordPress and Google Sheets. The data is all contained in this repository in .json form. The Google Apps Scripts used to parse the data are also maintained here. To build the production setup, though, requires creating custom Google Sheets, installing the apps scripts, and installing WordPress. In the future, it would be great to have the entire site open-sourced; but, it is what it is for now.
