Setting up this blog
A quick walkthrough on how to setup this type of blog.
Hey everyone!
Welcome to my brand new corner of the internet! If you’re reading this, it means I’ve successfully navigated the (sometimes tricky, but ultimately rewarding) waters of setting up a blog.
My weapon of choice for this particular endeavor was the beautiful and feature-rich jekyll-theme-chirpy. Seriously, if you’re looking for a clean, modern, and highly customizable theme, Chirpy is an absolute gem. It comes with so many great features right out of the box, from dark mode to search functionality, making it a joy to work with.
One tool that made this whole process significantly smoother was jekyll-compose. For those unfamiliar, jekyll-compose is a plugin that provides helpful commands for creating new posts, drafts, and pages directly from your terminal. No more manually creating new .md files and front matter – just a quick command and you’re good to go. It’s a small thing, but it saves so much time and keeps your workflow streamlined.
Stay tuned for more updates!
