My Jekyll Blog on GitHub pages - based on the jalpc template

Welcome to my blog: https://atlas7.github.io/

It is is built with Jekyll, GitHub Pages, and the Jalpc Theme (Check out Jalpc for more instructions).

How I publish post

git clone this repository locally to my macbook.

Make sure git repository has the appropriate remote:

johnny@Chuns-MacBook-Pro atlas7.github.io (master) $ git remote -v
origin  https://github.com/Atlas7/atlas7.github.io.git (fetch)
origin  https://github.com/Atlas7/atlas7.github.io.git (push)

Use an IDE (I use Webstorm, though Sublime text will also do) and a terminal (e.g. iterm2, or Mac Terminal).

Create a new blog post:

  • Got to /_posts
  • Create a markdown file with a name like this: yyyy-mm-dd-hello-this-is-my-title.md
  • Create a meta block at the top (so called "front matters"). I usually just copy and paste from older posts and tweak.
  • Write the post in markdown syntax
  • Save post

To preview post:

jekyll serve

This will serve the blog post locally at http://127.0.0.1:4000/

Ready to push to https://atlas7.github.io/?

Easy, just do push master to origin:

git push origin master

(or just git push). The actual GitHub pages [https://atlas7.github.io/] may take a few seconds to build / update.

How you may create a blog like this:

Again, please check out the Jalpc Theme) - it has all the instructions on how to download the base repository and tweak. This is how I got started.

Cheers, Johnny
