My personal webpage (and, possibly, Blog) using Jekyll with the Jekyll Now theme.
As a GitHub user, you’re "entitled" to one free user website, which will live at https://yourusername.github.io
. GitHub Pages are powered by Jekyll.
Jekyll is a website generator that’s designed for building minimal, static blogs, with all of the content hosted and version-controlled on GitHub. The goal was to eliminate the complexity of other blogging platforms by creating a workflow that allows you to blog like a hacker.
Jekyll Now makes it easier to create your Jekyll blog, by eliminating a lot of the up front setup.
- Fully responsive and mobile optimized base theme (theme demo);
- Sass/Coffeescript support using Jekyll 2.0;
- Disqus commenting;
- Google Analytics integration;
- SVG social icons for your footer.
Local Development:
- Install Jekyll and plug-ins in one fell swoop with
gem install github-pages
. This mirrors the plug-ins used by GitHub Pages on your local machine including Jekyll, Sass, etc.; - Clone down your fork
git clone https://github.com/clinis/clinis.github.io.git
; - Serve the site and watch for markup/sass changes with
bundle exec jekyll serve
(orjekyll serve
); - View your website at http://localhost:4000/;
- Commit any changes and push everything to the master branch of your GitHub user repository. GitHub Pages will then rebuild and serve your website.
