How it began …
I first heard of Jekyll while browsing through Reddit months ago and as I continue reading the comments in several subreddits they all have the same theme.
Jekyll is really good for simple static sites.
Fast forward to now. I wanted to update my portfolio and decided why not use Jekyll since its been mention many times.
To start the installation of Jekyll, I refer to its main site.
I have to say it was very simple. If you have ruby already installed. it was literally
$ gem install jekyll
*refer to the site for installation *
After reading through the documentation on the main site, I decided to use a theme called Leonids.
So far, I am pretty happy with the process and am still surprise at the learning curve of Jekyll.
For future readers, I definately recommend to use this framework for simple sites and blogs.
