Welcome to Jekyll!

You’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';
 2 
 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 });
