Welcome to Jekyll!
23 Dec 2014You’ll find this post in your _posts
directory. Go ahead and edit it and re-build the site to see your changes. You can rebuild the site in many different ways, but the most common way is to run jekyll serve --watch
, which launches a web server and auto-regenerates your site when a file is updated.
To add new posts, simply add a file in the _posts
directory that follows the convention YYYY-MM-DD-name-of-post.ext
and includes the necessary front matter. Take a look at the source for this post to get an idea about how it works.
Jekyll also offers powerful support for code snippets:
def print_hi(name)
puts "Hi, #{name}"
end
print_hi('Tom')
#=> prints 'Hi, Tom' to STDOUT.
1 'use strict';

3 var net = require('net'),
4 HOST = 'localhost',
5 PORT = 45999,
6 server = net.createServer();
7
8 function onConnection(socket) {
9 socket.write('hi');
10 socket.destroy();
11 }
12
13 server.on('connection', onConnection);
14
15 server.listen(PORT, HOST, function() {
16 console.log('Server listening on %s, on port %d', HOST, PORT);
17 });
